Map Description
Old map of Belarus, Russian Federation, Vitsyebskaya Voblasts.
names are in Russian and Polish. The territory depicted on the map lies within present-day Belarus. Vitebsk is mentioned in early chronicles as having been founded in the tenth century. It developed as a semi-independent principality in the Middle Ages, influenced by neighboring polities in Kiev, Polotsk, and Smolensk. Its location on the river systems traversing the lands between the Baltic and Black Seas gave the region prominence and wealth already during Viking times. After the 14th century, Vitebsk fell under the sway of the Grand Duchy of Lithuania and later the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth. Vitebsk and the surrounding region became part of the Russian Empire after the First Partition of Poland in 1772, when Vitebsk Province was established. World Digital Library.

Map Sizing Information
- For the best legibility, order your map in the original size or larger. Most maps have intricate detail and small text that is best appreciated when the print size hasn't been reduced.
- Sizes labeled "Fits a Standard Frame" will drop right into any frame that you purchase in that size. The sizes that we offer are commonly available online and at most retail stores.
- Our standard sizes are recommendations based on the aspect ratio of the original map, but still may require some added "white space" in one dimension to fit.
- Non-standard sizes will require custom framing, and we suggest taking your print to the frame shop of your choice after you receive it for the best results.
- Custom sizes are available, simply contact us for a quote.
Below is an approximation of the scale of a few standard sizes, and how they might appear in your space.
