Acerca del artículo

Map of Aude France with Carcassonne and Languedoc Vineyards, 19th Century Description: This elegant 19th-century map of Aude, a department in southern France along the Mediterranean coast, was engraved for the Nouvel Atlas Illustré and published in Paris by Migeon. It offers a rich visual and historical depiction of a region known for its medieval heritage, wine production, and proximity to both the Pyrenees and the Mediterranean Sea. The map presents the full layout of Aude with towns, roads, and rivers carefully labeled, and department borders highlighted in soft hand-applied lavender tones. At the center lies Carcassonne, one of the most iconic fortified cities in Europe, whose medieval citadel is a UNESCO World Heritage site. The surrounding landscape is marked by mountain foothills, river valleys, and vineyards, reflecting the area's diverse topography. To the left is a portrait of General Antoine-François Andréossy, a distinguished artillery officer and diplomat born in Castelnaudary. Below him, an engraving depicts a southern French village with a Romanesque church, typical of the Aude countryside. In the lower right corner, a lively harbor view shows the port at Gruissan, linking the department to Mediterranean trade and culture. The inclusion of the coat of arms and classical decorative motifs adds to the historical charm of the print. Aude is part of the historic Languedoc wine region and is especially known for producing robust red wines and sparkling wines like Blanquette de Limoux, considered by many to be the world’s oldest sparkling wine. The vineyards around Limoux and the Corbières hills yield Grenache, Syrah, Mourvèdre, and other varietals that define the rich, earthy character of southern French wines. The climate, shaped by both mountain and sea, creates ideal growing conditions. This map is not only a piece of cartographic history but also a reflection of the cultural identity of Aude during the 19th century, capturing its architecture, prominent individuals, and viticultural heritage. Condition summary: Very good condition with light toning around the edges and minor foxing in the margins. Engraving is crisp and the original hand coloring remains bright and clean. Framing tips: A warm wood or gilded frame would enhance the classic feel of this map. Pair it with an off-white or pale grey mat to complement the pastel coloring. UV-protective glass is recommended to preserve the paper and detail.
