The map of Styria, Carinthia and Carniola with the counties of Gorica and Gradiška and the district of Trieste, shows their mutual boundaries and the administrative territorial organization. The topography is shown in a very arbitrary way, with shaded molehills. Forested areas of the lower Carniola are accentuated by inscription of a group of trees. By the mark of a star-like circle are represented major towns, while smaller places are marked by a symbol of church. The title of the map is in the lower left corner of the map in a panel illustrated with a simple branch decoration. A mileage scale is in German miles (Deutche M.). This map is published in Relly's atlas "Schauplatz der Welt Atlas" 1789-1791.
