| Description |
Français : Adaptation paysagère d'une estampe de 1800 illustrant l'usage des nouvelles mesures décimales, rendu obligatoire en France par un arrêté du 13 brumaire an IX (4 novembre 1800), cinq ans après l'introduction du système métrique. [Collection Michel Hennin. Estampes relatives à l'Histoire de France.] « Usage des nouvelles mesures : 1. le litre (pour la pinte) 2. le gramme (pour la livre) 3. le mètre (pour l'aune) 4. l'are (pour la toise) 5. le franc (pour une livre tournois) 6. le stère (pour la demie voie de bois). » English: Woodcut dated 1800 illustrating the new decimal units which became the legal norm in France on 4 November 1800, five years after the metric system was first introduced. In the captions, each one of these six new units is followed by the old French unit in brackets: the litre, the gram, the metre, the are (100 square metres), the franc, and the stère (1 cubic metre of wood). |
