Gouvernement General de Languedoc
Southwest France focusing on the region of Languedoc but also with parts of the regions of Guienne and Gascony.
De Fer (1646-1720) was the son of a prominent engraver and produced his first map in 1669. He joined his father's business in 1673 and ultimately took over in 1687. He was a prolific map maker who produced over six hundred separate maps in multiple forms; as separate issues, bound within history and travel books, and as atlases. In the late 17th century he was made Geographer to the Dauphin.[FR3641]
