Levassur was a prominent French cartographer working in Paris in the
mid-18th century. The maps shown here represent the cheese producing
regions in France, where some of the most famous cheeses were and still
are produced. The cheeses for each region are noted next to the
Department listings. Larger images of the maps can be viewed by clicking
on the thumbnail pictures depicted against each one. With the purchase
of each map, we will provide a listing of the cheeses to accompany it,
and as the maps are all one-of-a-kind items, we only have one example of
each, so it's first come first served! With their finely engraved
borders showing the produce & commerce of each region, they look
stunning framed and hung on the walls of dining areas, kitchens,
restaurants and wherever gourmet diners get together to savour fine food
and enjoy good company!
