The charm of these maps is their simple direct elegance style and lack of pretension, coming at the end of a period where even the traditionally scientific French mapmakers were still utilizing Rococo style decorative cartouches, coats of arms and dedications to French nobility on most maps. The maps were accompanied by several pages of explanatory text for each map, containing a concise geographical and historical overview of the region.
