This map is part of the work Atlas Moderne, published in 1770 in Paris by the French cartographer Jean Janvier (1746-1779). The map covers the northern and southern parts of Hungary, including Transylvania, as well as parts of Bosnia, Bulgaria, Moldova and Wallachia. Specialists have disagreed on the scholar's surname, so he is mentioned either as Jean or Robert, because he always signed his works as S(igno)r Janvier. Engraving on copper, manually coloured after imprinting.
