Les Isles Britanniques - Antique Map from 1786

Genuine antique
dated:

1786

Description:

Beautiful map of the British Isles with an inset map of the Orkneys and Shetland with an elaborate title cartouche and decorative frame border design.

From Desnos, Atlas General, Civil, Ecclesiatique et Militaire…., Paris.

Mapmaker:

Louis Brion De La Tour (fl 1756-1803)

Beyond the fact that Brion was an engineer by profession and held the post of Ingenieur-Geographe du Roi, little is known of his career. He published a wide range of statistical works and a number of atlases, published by the well known French mapmaker Louis Charles Desnos (1725-1805).
