Partie du comté de Flandres, la Flandre impériale, la Flandre hollandoise, la Flandre françoise, le comté de Hainaut, et le Cambresis
A 1769 atlas-style regional volume on Flanders, Hainaut and Cambrésis, compiled by Jean Baptiste Christyn and published in Paris by J. F. Bassompierre, père, for readers of French-speaking northern territories. Its plates are engraved views and plans: a walled town plan with a star-shaped fortification, abbey complexes seen in aerial oblique, and a formal garden or procession scene with riders and carriages. A designer might take the crisp hatched line work, the geometric bastion layouts and the bird's-eye perspective of gardens and courtyards.
