France pittoresque, ou description ... des départements et colonies de la France ... pur A. H
A departmental topographic survey of France and its colonies compiled by Abel Hugo and published in Paris in 1838 for general readers and students of regional geography and history. The plates are small steel-engraved views in pale grey line: hilltop castles, river gorges, and provincial towns seen across fields, with carts, boatmen and figures in the foreground and captions set beneath a FRANCE PITTORESQUE running head.
