$320.00

This beautifully engraved map of France shows the country divided into 16 provinces.  A legend at top left identifies parliaments, universities, miliary facilities, Roman antiquities, and the locations of battles won and lost by the French.  The map includes a numbered key down the right side that includes the seven Wonders of Dauphine.  There is a small inset map at the lower left side corner that depicts Ancient France, with a table just above, listing various peoples according to Cesar.  In all, a very informative map of its time; with attractive color denoting the political divisions.  Taken from the Atlas Historique et Methodique, it is rated Very Good [see our rating criteria on the Home Page] with a good and sharp impression and borders trimmed close to the neatline.
