Gilles Robert de Vaugondy, along with his son Didier, were map publishers, engravers and cartographers active in the Paris of mid-18th century. They are well-known today for the detail and accuracy of their maps, where they excellently used all material and resources available to produce the most “fantasy-free” maps possible..
