1852 Paris
This is an interesting piece because it was originally drawn by Henry-Charles Emmery (1789-1842) in 1833 after the cholera epidemic in France. This map was revisted twice, using additional plans from 1837 and then finally 1852 at the begining of Napoleon III's reign and Haussmann's appointment to spearhead the transformation of Paris. / Image courtesy of David Rumsey Collection © 2000 by Cartography Associates
