Description |
English: This is a fascinating 1857 map of the French department of l'Allier, France. This area of France is known for its production of Saint-Pourçain wine. It is also one of the rare places in Southern Europe where the freshwater grayling, known in French as ombre des rivières, occurs in a natural habitat. 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. Published by V. Levasseur in the 1852 edition of his Atlas National de la France Illustree. |
