"Partie Septentrionale du Gouvernem? General de Champagne ou se Trouvent le Retelois, le Rhemois, la Champagne Propre, Partie de la Brie et du Pertois, &c.", Robert de Vaugondy, Gilles

This delicately engraved map of the northern half of the famous Champagne region is centered approximately on Reims. Locates hundreds of villages and towns with nice topographical detail and a fine rococo-style cartouche entwined with grapevines. Robert de Vaugondy's Atlas Universel was one of the most successful and enduring works of the latter part of the eighteenth century.
