Cover of a volume of the "Nouveau Larousse illustré"

The Nouveau Larousse illustré (New Larousse Illustrated) was an illustrated French language encyclopedia published by Larousse between 1897-1904, in 7 volumes and a supplement. It was essentially a scaled-down version of the "Grand dictionnaire universel du XIXe siècle" (Great universal dictionary of the 19th century) of Pierre Larousse, but updated and written in a more neutral, scientific style under the editorship of Claude Augé (1854-1924).^[1]

The encyclopedia consisted of 7,600 pages containing 237,000 articles, with 49,000 b/w illustrations, over 500 maps and 89 colour plates.^[1]
