This antique map created in 1665 is titled ‘Bvrgvndia Dvcatvs’, which translates to ‘Duchy of Burgundy’. It depicts the region of France in the early 17th century, which was a time of political and social upheaval. The map shows the central locations of Le Creusot, Autun, and Dijon, but does not provide too much detail about specific places. During this time, France was ruled by King Louis XIII and his minister Cardinal Richelieu, who were working to centralize power and strengthen the monarchy. The country was also experiencing religious conflicts between Catholics and Protestants, as well as economic struggles. This map provides a glimpse into the geography and political divisions of France during this time period.

Some place names that may be covered by the map: Chevigny Saint Sauveur, Musée Du Palais Ducal, Chaumont, Barthélémy Thimonier, Roanne, Dijon, Longvic, Château De Clos Vougeot, La Comelle, Chevigny-Saint-Sauveur, Paray-Le-Monial, Allier, Riorges, Lusigny Sur Ouche

Giclée Print Feedback:

Absolutely stellar service! Whilst I was considering my purchase Callum was extremely helpful and friendly, taking the time to actually talk to me rather than keep to business – how refreshing and genuine! I made my purchase quite late in the evening and was surprised to receive notification that it had been dispatched the following day! Lo and behold, I received the print within 48 hours – a remarkably quick turnaround!

Certainly no need to worry about Christmas delivery times! As for the print I bought – perfect… exceptional quality, with fine detail captured without fault. It’s on nice thick paper and packaged with care. I’ll definitely be back for more – I’ve already eyed up my next one!
