"Plan de Paris et de ses Faubourgs en l'Etat quil Etoit en 1749", Le Rouge, George Louis

This uncommon and densely detailed bird's-eye plan of Paris and its immediate surroundings is divided into a grid to make the city more navigable. A key at bottom locates parishes, and there is an extensive alphabetical index at left and right that identifies street names. Notre Dame, Champs-Elysees, Tuileries Garden, Les Invalides, the Sorbonne, and many more notable sites are labeled.
