Page approx. 31 x 21.8 cm (12’’ 1/4 x 8’’ 1/2), margins included. Map approx. 23.5 x 15.2 cm (9’’ 1/4 x 6’’)
Gorgeous little engraving showing a delicately colorized map of a French department: the Ardèche department. Do you know where it is situated? As you may know, France is divided in 101 department. This one is in the Southeast of France, bordered on the East by the Rhône river. The capital is the town of Privas. It is an area renowned for the Gorges of the Ardèche river.
This dictionary page comes from a rare damaged 1892 French Trousset dictionary. It was engraved on thick paper. Under the map, there are in both bottom corners mentions of the company which engraved it (Paris Lith. Lemercier & Cie) and even of the person who did the actual engraving (F. Morieu, 33 r. Vavin in Paris). Isn't that perfect?
