Decorative vignettes of local industries, historical figures, regional produce and coats of arms frame every map in Atlas Nationale illustré, Victor Levasseur's atlas of 1850 to 1856. The steel-engraved departmental maps include Saône-et-Loire, Yonne, Vaucluse, Ardèche, Lozère, Nord, Corsica, Pas-de-Calais and Charente-Inférieure among many others. World sheets show North America with the Texas Republic, and Oceania with Australia and New Zealand, while French possessions from Algeria, Senegal and Madagascar to Guadeloupe, Martinique, French Guiana, Miquelon and Réunion receive their own maps. Illustrated title pages and statistical tables for France and its territories complete the work.
