Jean Lattré was a French cartographer and engraver who lived during the 18th century. He was known for producing a variety of maps and atlases. One of his notable works is the map titled "Carte De L'Arabie qui se divise en Arabie Petree, Deserte et Heureuse," which was published in 1771.

The map depicts the Arabian Peninsula and is divided into three regions: "Arabie Petree" (Petraea), "Deserte" (Desert), and "Heureuse" (Felix Arabia). Each region likely represents different geographical and historical aspects of the Arabian Peninsula.

"Arabie Petree" refers to the region of Petraea, which historically was associated with the Nabataean Kingdom and later the Roman province of Arabia Petraea. It included the area around Petra, the famous ancient city carved into the rose-red cliffs of present-day Jordan.

"Deserte" likely refers to the vast desert areas that dominate much of the Arabian Peninsula, such as the Rub' al Khali (Empty Quarter), one of the largest continuous sand deserts in the world.

"Heureuse" (Felix Arabia) refers to the southwestern part of the Arabian Peninsula, known for its fertile lands and more favorable living conditions compared to the arid desert regions.

Lattré's map would have been a product of the geographical knowledge and cartographic techniques available during the 18th century. It may have featured geographical landmarks, cities, trade routes, and other significant details relevant to the understanding of the Arabian Peninsula at that time.
