DescriptionThis colored aerial map of Luxembourg and the surrounding area is in pink, green, and yellow. There is a yellow and black line frame drawn around the map. Inside a thin pink strip running horizontally across the top of the map, it has the title in French on the left--and in German on the right. There is a small scale inside a white box in the upper left corner of the map. In the upper right corner, there is a key in a small white box. There is text in a framed box in the lower left corner of the map. Across the bottom of the page, there is a black and white illustration in three parts. The two boxes in the left and right corners are smaller than the panoramic image in the center. In the box in the left corner, there is a man holding a musket against his shoulder as he leans on a cannon. There is a flag flying behind him. In the box on the right, there is a man sitting inside a big hall, and he is holding a painting on his leg.On View
