A beautifully detailed and richly illustrated French map titled “Nouveau Paris Monumental – Itinéraire Pratique de l’Étranger dans Paris”, accompanied on the reverse by “Monuments et Vues des Environs de Paris.”
Published by Garnier Frères, Éditeurs Libraires, this charming early 20th-century map offers both a monumental city plan of Paris and a pictorial map of its surrounding regions.
The Paris view is rendered in a warm blush tone with finely engraved architectural vignettes highlighting landmarks such as:
• The Arc de Triomphe
• The Opéra
• The Madeleine
• The Louvre
• Les Invalides
• The Tuileries
• The Eiffel Tower
The reverse illustrates the broader environs of Paris with detailed drawings of cathedrals, châteaux, and historic towns — including Versailles, Chartres, Fontainebleau, and more.
A wonderful decorative and collectible example of French cartographic design.
