This antique map, created in 1665, is titled ‘[left] Lovdonois Lavdvnvm; [right] Mirebalais’. Translated from Latin, this means ‘Loudun, the City of Praise; Mirebalais’. France in the early 17th century was a kingdom ruled by Louis XIII, with Cardinal Richelieu as his chief minister. The country was recovering from the devastation of the Thirty Years’ War and was experiencing a period of cultural and artistic flourishing known as the Grand Siècle (Great Century). The economy was largely agricultural, with wine production being a major industry. The map may show various towns and villages in the region, including Châtellerault, Monts-sur-Guesnes, and Prinçay, which are located centrally. However, the map is likely to be more focused on the geographic features of the area, such as rivers, forests, and hills.
