World
2020 × 1480 mm (with baguette)
The relief map of the World is made in the Miller cylindrical projection, on a scale of 1 : 25,000,000. The political map is made in 4 colors, all states, capitals, administrative centers of the first and second order are indicated on it, with the selection by population. The surface of the model is constructed from the altitude data taken from the space shuttle Endeavor. In the polar regions – according to topographic and airborne radar measurements.

Russian Empire
2020 × 1480 mm (with baguette)
The relief map of the Russian Empire is made in the normal conic equidistant projection of Kavraysky, on a scale of 1:5,500,000. Geographical names and cities population correspond to 1917 and given according to the rules of pre-reform Russian language. The borders of the states correspond to the beginning of the First World War in 1914. The main historical material for the creation of the map is the various cartographic works published in the period from 1914 to 1917. The surface of the model was built from altitude data taken from the space shuttle Endeavor in 2000. The map is cut out of solid beech and framed with a passe-partout with a classic oak baguette. The map and frame are hand-painted with oil paints.
Historical map of hostilities
2020 × 1480 mm (with baguette)
The map covers the entire theater of the war of the allied empires against Turkey in 1787-1791 and reflects the special role of the commander A. V. Suvorov in its victorious outcome. All geographical names, with the preservation of the original orthography, were transferred from archival maps of the 18th century, covering the territories of the Yekaterinoslav governorate (with acquired territories), the Tauride province, the Caucasian and other Russian borderlands. Details of military actions on the sea and land are shown in detail, aggregating information from historical and modern maps of this war. The relief of the map is based on the materials of modern SRTM satellite imagery. On the inset map (Battle of Rymnik) – on the basis of high-resolution ALOS PALSAR imagery. The map is made in the normal conic equidistant projection of Kavraisky, on a scale of 1:700,000. The map is carved from solid Abacha wood using automated high-precision equipment. Hand-painted with oil paints in grisaille colors.
