Engraved by French artists in 1753, this historical map offers a fascinating glimpse into the early development of one of America's most iconic cities. The detailed engraving highlights the topography and layout of New Orleans during its formative years as a French colony. It vividly captures the city's strategic location along the Mississippi River, which played a crucial role in shaping its growth and prosperity. As we delve into this visual masterpiece, we are transported back to an era when New Orleans was known as "La Nouvelle-Orléans" part of France's vast colonial empire in North America.
