17th Century Topographical Map of Cote D'azur, Avignon, Frejus by Iohan Peeters
About the Item
Fine topographical 17th century map by Iohan Peeters of the towns of Avignon and Frejus in the Cote d'Azur-Provence-Alpes Region of Southeastern France.
Beautifully suited decorative element for a French Provincial theme. Lovely memento of a memorable trip to the South of France.
The beautiful city of Avignon is one of the most admired historical centers in Southern France. It includes three UNESCO World Heritage cites- the Cathedral, Palais de Papes and Pont d'Avignon. The medieval monuments of the city provide a striking backdrop to the annual Festival d'Avignon, one of the world's largest Performing Arts festivals. The Avignon engraving illustrates Les Grands Augustins, La Maison de Ville, L'Eglise de St. Pierre, Le College du Roure, Coll. de Sinanque, les sette Rotonde, Les Recollez, Les Capucins and Notre Dame des sept Douleurs.
The bucolic coastal town of Frejus was a strategically important Roman city. Julius Caesar founded the city as Forum Julii and Augustus made the city the capital of Narbonensis in 22 BC. Frejus became one of the most important ports in the Mediterranean, being the only naval base for the Roman fleet in Gaul. Roman period buildings include an aquaduct, amphitheater and theater. Also of note is the Notre-Dame de Jerusalem Chapel which was designed in the 1960's by Jean Cocteau. The Frejus engraving shows the town proper, surrounded by the picturesque Roman ruins
Fine antique engraving of beautiful detail and workmanship.
In very good condition commensurate with age, small area of separation along the center joint and minor edge tearing at the top, covered when framed.
Size: 15 inches by 12.5 inches
Similar pieces depicting different town and cities of the region are available.
