Published by the Dépôt Général de la Marine, these 12 volumes contain 481 engraved plates (of which 325 are double map charts), covering the coasts of the Americas, Europe, the Mediterranean, Africa, and parts of Asia. Notably, this collection stands out for its absence of duplicates and the inclusion of charts from regions as diverse as Canada and the coastal United States. By comparison, the present 12 volume set is significantly larger than the largest known compiliation (National Maritime Museum), which consists of 391 maps, including 44 duplicates (Atlases in the National Maritime Museum Vol III, pp 250-259). Excluding duplicates, the present 12 volume set of 481 plates with no duplicates has 134 more map sheets than the NMM copy. The late 18th and early 19th centuries were a period of significant maritime exploration and expansion, especially for European powers like France. These maps were instrumental in navigating and claiming territories across the globe, particularly in the Americas and Asian regions.

The charts in these volumes, mainly dated between 1790 and 1820, capture this pivotal period in maritime history, offering insights into the geopolitical and navigational challenges of the time. The collection's wide geographical range, from detailed charts of the Americas to the coasts of Europe and Asia, highlights the extensive reach of French naval power and exploration.
