Paris In 1887 Wall Map
Paris in 1887 as mapped by the Service Géographique de l’Armée and reproduced by its successor as France’s national survey organization, the Institut Géographique National. Published on thick paper, traditionally used for reproductions of historical mapping, this lovely wall map will appeal to anyone interested in this great city.Coverage extends outside the present day Boulevard Périphérique, the course of which is indicated on the map by the old city walls, west beyond the northward bend in the Seine to include all of the Bois de Boulogne and part of the Parc de St. Cloud; east to include the Château de Vincennes and most of the park; south to Villejuif; and north just beyond the city walls to Clichy and Bobigny. Various districts of the city, as well as surrounding
villages are named. Since the plan is post-Haussmann, the familiar street layout is already in place, including even the Eiffel Tower whose construction began in that year. No street names are shown. The map has no legend.
