1874 Military Map Adige Valley Lake Garda Italy
1874 Military Map of the Adige Valley
"RIVOLI"
Excellent Detail
This original
steel etching by Ch. Dyonnet after the drawing by Th. Duvotenay,
originally appeared as text
illustration in M.A. Thiers's "Histoire de la Revolution
Francaise" (Paris, Furne et Cie 1846). The map was reprinted for
"Atlas Geographie Militaire", Adopte Par. M. Le Ministre De La
Guerre Pour L'Ecole Speciale Militaire De Saint-Cyr, by Colonel
Edmond Bureau. Printed in
Paris by Furne, the publisher Thier's atlas,
Jouvet et Cie, Libraires-Éditeurs, 45 Rue
Saint-André-des-Arts, MDCCCLXXIV (1874).
Bureau was a
professor of history, geography, and military statistics at the
military academy
at Saint-Cyr. Bureau's atlas was a revision of the similar atlas by Theophile
Lavallee. Both atlased used the original plates engraved
by Dyonnet.
This authentic map of the Adige Valley depicts
roads, towns, villages, etc. The map shows part of the northern
part of Lake Garda from San Giovanni di Brensone to Bardolino.
Little of the west shore is shown, but a very detailed
geographical blow-up of the eastern shore clear to the
Adige. On Jan 14, 1794 Napoleon Bonaparte defeated Austrians at
Rivoli on the Adige, about 15 miles north of Verona.
