Description

Vintage map as a wall decor can lend to any space a nostalgic and sophisticated feel. This map of Paris in the year 1705 is the eighth map from French book “Treatise on the Police”, printed in the same year. With this map you can trace the streets of Paris as they were when Louis XIV, the Sun King, reigned. It was on his orders that defensive walls surrounding Paris were brought down and replaced by first Parisian boulevards. Hand-printed in sepia to give it a vintage feel, this detailed map of Paris, reproduced from the Rand McNally’s Atlas, is matted and framed in walnut wood for long-lasting style.
