EDITORS COMMENTS
This elegant and intricately detailed map print, titled 'Map of the French Department of Indre-et-Loire - No. 37,' dates back to the 1910s. The map provides an extensive and accurate representation of the Indre-et-Loire department in France, located in the Centre-Val de Loire region. The map is adorned with charming inset illustrations of some of the most notable towns and châteaux within the department, including Chenonceaux, Langeais, Loches, and Amboise. Chenonceaux, depicted in the upper left corner, is famous for its unique architecture, with a portion of the castle arching gracefully over the Cher River. Langeais, shown in the lower left, is home to a magnificent fortress and was once a favorite residence of the French monarchy. Loches, illustrated in the lower right, boasts a stunning château and is known for its beautiful gardens and historic significance. Amboise, located in the upper right, was a favorite residence of King Francis I and is home to the Royal Château d'Amboise. The map also features portraits of two renowned figures associated with Indre-et-Loire: Rene Descartes and Francois Rabelais. Descartes, the father of modern philosophy, mathematics, and science, is depicted in the upper left corner, while Rabelais, a major French Renaissance writer, physician, humanist, monk, and Greek scholar, is shown in the lower right. This beautiful map print offers a captivating glimpse into the rich history and cultural significance of Indre-et-Loire, making it a must-have for anyone with an interest in French history, geography, or art.
