About the Item
This large and detailed plan of Paris was published by Alexandre Vuillemin in 1845. The map conveys a wonderful amount of information and is decorated throughout with pictorial vignettes of major buildings, bridges, trains, and monuments.
It also includes a table with an alphabetized street index; a list of suburbs with distances to Paris, population and festival days; a table listing forts surrounding Paris with distances to the center of the city; and a list of passages located throughout the city.
Alexandre Vuillemin (1812-1880) was a leading 19th century French cartographer and editor. He studied under French cartographer Auguste Dufour and set up shop in Paris. Vuillemin produced over ten different atlases during his career; many of which were so popular they went through multiple editions. His maps are noted for the frequent use of extensive margin illustrations – vignettes, portraits of famous people, and inset birds-eye views of cities.

By Pierre François Tardieu
Located in Colorado Springs, CO
1812 "United States of Nth America -- Carte des Etats-Unis De L'Amerique Septentrionale" Two-Sheet Map by Tardieu
This attractive map, published in Paris in 1812, is one of the most rare large format maps from the period. It features a view of the East Coast of the U.S. from Maryland to just below South Carolina. Additionally, Ellicott’s plan for the City of Washington D.C. is included at the top right and an illustration of Niagara Falls is shown at the bottom right with a description in both French and English. This extremely detailed map not only depicts the mountainous regions of the southeastern U.S., but also includes names of regions, rivers, and towns.
Based on the first state of Arrowsmith’s 4-sheet map of the United States, this map is completely engraved by Tardieu in Paris and showcases high quality engravings. This detailed map of the recently independent United States includes one of the largest and earliest examples of the Ellicott plan of Washington DC.
The artist, Pierre François Tardieu (PF Tardieu) was a very well-known map engraver, geographer, and illustrator. Awarded a bronze medal by King Louis-Phillipe for the accuracy and beauty of his map-making, Tardieu produced many fine works including maps of Louisiana...
