Antique Map of Hérault ‘France’ by V. Levasseur, 1854

About the Item

Antique map titled 'Dépt. de l'Hérault'. Map of the French department of Herault, France. This area is home to a wide variety of vineyards and is part of the larger Languedoc wine-growing region, the oldest in France. The red wines produced here are meaty, tannic wines with a deep red color. The area is also known for its production of Pélardon cheese, made from goat's milk, and Pérail, an ewe's milk cheese. The whole is surrounded by elaborate decorative engravings designed to illustrate both the natural beauty and trade richness of the land. There is a short textual history of the regions depicted on both the left and right sides of the map. This map originates from ‘Atlas National de la France Illustré’. Published by A. Combette, Paris, 1854.
