About the Item

Antique map titled 'Dépt. de l'Ardèche'. Map of the Department of Ardèche, France. This region is known for its fine wines, agriculture, distilled spirits, and cheese. The capital city is Privas. The whole is surrounded by elaborate decorative engravings designed to illustrate both the natural beauty and trade richness of the land. This map originates from 'Atlas National de la France Illustree' published by V. Levasseur, circa 1852. Victor Levasseur (1800–1870) was a French cartographer widely known for his distinctive decorative style. He produced numerous maps more admired for the artistic content of the scenes and data surrounding the map than for the detail of the map. Victor Levasseur's "Atlas National Illustré" and "Atlas Universel Illustré" are among the last great decorative atlases published.
