Beskrivning
"Divisée par Départements"
Decorative antique map of France showing the administrative division into 86 departments, published in Atlas Portatif du Royaume de France by Aristide Michel Perrot. The circular central map is framed with neoclassical ornaments and symbolic imagery exalting the sciences, arts, and patriotic virtues.

Drawn by A.M. Perrot, engraved by Lallemand, and cartographically structured by Thierry. This map exemplifies the post-revolutionary reorganization of France and reflects the Enlightenment-era blend of art and geographic precision.
