Additional Details

An unusual restrike of the left portion of Michelot and Bremond's 1727 multi-sheet wall map; here their credit has been erased and replaced with that of Francois Berthelot and the publisher's imprint altered to Joseph Roux: both of whom were working in the eighteenth century, but the plate apparently survived with the present example struck in the first half of the nineteenth.
