85. Map "Plan of the attack and victory obtained by the Russian army against the Turks and Tatars near Larga, in Moldova, on July 7, 1770", by Pierre François Tardieu, Paris, 1783

Although they were half as many, the Russians win the battle and capture 33 cannons and the enemy's large camp. The battle opened the way for a series of Russian army victories and the Peace of Kuciuk-Kainargi, an important moment for modern Romanian history. The work was published in the atlas "Histoire physique, morale, civile et politique de la Russie ancienne", by Nicolas Gabriel Le Clerc, in Paris, in 1783.
