This finely detailed plan of Paris also depicts its surrounding faubourgs and environs. A long note at lower right explains that Paris is divided into three parts, namely the City, the Town, and the University. A lettered key names and locates 23 important buildings. Streets, churches, palaces, gardens, boat yards, orchards, hotels, and much more are depicted on this superb plan. This fully engraved and handsome chart is further embellished with a large city coat of arms, a very nice compass rose, and three distance scales.
