From the Wikipedia article

Karol Perthées or Karol Herman de Perthées (14 January 1740 – 21 November 1815 / 2 December 1815) was a Polish-Lithuanian army engineer who served as royal cartographer under the patronage of Stanisław August Poniatowski. He worked on maps of the region, collected insects, and lectured on cartography for the Russian army in Vilnius. His most famous map, Polonia secundum legitimas proiectionis stereographicae regulas, was destroyed in 1944 by a fire but reconstructions exist.
