Extremely detailed complete wallchart of the Holy Roman Empire during the Seven Years' War or Third Silesian War (1756-1763).

Fully assembled, the map would be circa 200 x 225 cm. in size. Followed by another double-paged overview map of the Atlas Géographique [sic] et Militaire, a smaller double-paged map of the Théatre de la Guerre, a double-paged map of the siege of Chotzemitz and finally a double-paged overview map of Saxony and surrounding territories.
