SERBIA - BANAT. UNGARISCHES KRIEGS THEATRUM.

A large and detailed, very decorative map of the theatre of war between the Austrians and Ottoman Turks 1716-17, fought in Romania and Serbia. Under Prince Eugene of Savoy the Austrians won battles at Temeswar (Timisoara), Belgrade & Petrovaradin, driving the Turks back over the Danube. In 1718 the Treaty of Passarowitz confirmed the river as the border between the two empires, with Belgrade an outpost of the Austrian empire. Insets show the sieges of Belgrade and Petrovaradin, plans of Temeswar and four smaller forts, and prospects of Belgrade and the Serbian ciry of Smederevo.
