THE SCIENCE

Gilles Robert de Vaugondy and his son, Didier Robert de Vaugondy, were the leading mapmakers of 18th-century France. In 1760 Didier was appointed cartographer to Louis XV. Using cutting edge astronomical science, the Vaugondys created masterful globes for the monarch, including one spanning over eight feet in diameter.
