Description

This map of Belle-Île, titled "Belleisle," was engraved and published by John Luffman on August 1, 1800. Part of Luffman's Select Plans, this map provides a detailed representation of Belle-Île, an island located off the coast of Brittany, France, in the Bay of Biscay. The map illustrates the island's parishes, settlements, and geographical features, highlighting its strategic maritime significance.

The map outlines the distinct parishes on Belle-Île: Bangor Parish, Palais Parish, Locmaria Parish, and Sauzon Parish. Each parish is clearly delineated, and significant settlements within each are labeled. The detail includes prominent points such as Pointe des Poulains in Sauzon Parish and Pointe de Kerdonis in Locmaria Parish marked for navigational reference.

Key towns and villages are labeled, such as Palais (the principal town), Sauzon, Bangor, and Locmaria.
