Turgot's map of Paris is possibly the most ambitious urban mapping ever undertaken. Shows the whole of 18th century Paris and offers a wonderful perspective on the city prior to Baron Georges Eugène Haussmann’s 19th-century redesign. Turgot, who held the mayor-like office of Prévôt des Marchands de Paris , commissioned Louis Bretez and Claude Lucas to produce this map in 1734. <a href="http://www.geographicus.com/P/AntiqueMap/Paris4-turgot-1900>... more</a> </p><br> http://www.geographicus.com/P/AntiqueMap/Paris4-turgot-1900 http://www.geographicus.com/P/AntiqueMap/Paris4-turgot-1900 <p><a href="http://www.geographicus.com/P/AntiqueMap/Paris-maltebrun-1828"><img src="http://www.geographicus.com/mm5/graphics/00000001/S/Paris-maltebrun-1828-S.jpg" alt="antique map" title="Antique & Rare Maps" border="0" /></a> This is an uncommon example of the 1828 view of Paris, drawn by W.

The nation was being governed by the Assemblée Nationale Constituante and Paris by the Paris Commune. Though Revolutionary sentiment was high among the Parisian populace, it had not yet taken on the radicalism that would soon follow. <a href="http://www.geographicus.com/P/AntiqueMap/Paris-esnautsrapilly-1791>... more</a> </p><br> http://www.geographicus.com/P/AntiqueMap/Paris-esnautsrapilly-1791 http://www.geographicus.com/P/AntiqueMap/Paris-esnautsrapilly-1791 <p><a href="http://www.geographicus.com/P/AntiqueMap/Paris-vuillemin-1891"><img src="http://www.geographicus.com/mm5/graphics/00000001/S/Paris-vuillemin-1891-S.jpg" alt="antique map" title="Antique & Rare Maps" border="0" /></a> A beautiful example of Alexandre Vuillemin's 1891 map or plan of Paris, France.
