EDITORS COMMENTS
This map print, hailing from the early 1910s, showcases the French Department of Deux-Sevres, specifically Map No. 79. The intricately detailed chart highlights the various towns, villages, and natural features of the department, located in western France. Two inset illustrations add depth to the map, featuring the historic Niort Castle and Town Hall. The castle, a striking fortress with its towering turrets and moat, has stood proudly over the town since the Middle Ages. The Town Hall, with its grand facade and ornate architecture, is a testament to the region's rich history. Another notable feature of this map is the portrait of Henri du Vergier, Comte de la Rochejaquelein, the youngest general of the Royalist Vendean insurrection during the French Revolution. The portrait, placed prominently at the bottom of the map, pays homage to this brave figure who led the resistance against the revolutionary forces. The Chateau de la Guyonnierre, a grand chateau located in the department, is also depicted on the map. The map's design is adorned with crests and decorative elements, adding to its antique charm. This map print is a beautiful and informative addition to any collection, providing a glimpse into the history and geography of the French Department of Deux-Sevres during the early 20th century.
