5080 Ambroise Tardieu – Map of the Environs of Soldau – Engraved Map on Laid Paper (Early 19th Century)
This finely engraved map by Ambroise Tardieu illustrates the region around Soldau (modern-day Działdowo, Poland), including key features such as the town center, surrounding terrain, Lac de Soldau, nearby villages, and military roads. Produced from surveys conducted by French military engineers, the map reflects the strategic importance of the area during Napoleonic campaigns. The clarity of topographic rendering and spatial relationships underscores Tardieu’s skill as both a scientific and military cartographer.
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.
