| 17 | ![]() ![]() ![]() | NOTES: This view may be from Sébastien de Pontault de Beaulieu’s (c.1612-1674) Les plans et profils des principales villes et lieux considérables de la principauté de Catalogne…du comté de Roussillon, Conflant & Cerdagne (Paris, undated, but circa 1670). De Beaulieu was a prominent military engineer in the service of Louis XIV and a highly talented artist of topographical views. Many of his views were engraved by Adam Perelle (1640-95), both before and after Beaulieu's death. Further views were posthumously published as part of Beaulieu's Les glorieuses Conquêtes de Louis-le-Grand, 2 vols. (1694). NOTES: A copy of this engraving is in the collection of the Institut Cartografic i Geologic de Catalunya. | CL15958 |
