Old Map of the French Department of Loir-et-cher, France
About the Item
Antique map titled 'Dépt. de Loir et Cher'. Map of the French department Loir-et-Cher, France. This area is mainly known for its production of Selles-sur-Cher, a fine goats-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 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.
