This engraved map by Ambroise Tardieu illustrates the passage of the Wkra River and the Battle of Czarnowo, a military engagement fought during the Napoleonic Wars in December 1806. The map displays the winding river, forests, and surrounding topography, as well as troop movements, roads, and settlements including Nowogrod and Modlin. Created with clarity and strategic intent, the composition is both a military document and a work of cartographic elegance.

Ambroise Tardieu was a renowned French engraver, cartographer, and scientific publisher active in the early 1800s. Known for his clarity, accuracy, and compositional elegance, he produced influential atlases and military maps during the Napoleonic era. His engravings on Egypt reflect both Enlightenment curiosity and military strategic needs.
