Aug 20, 2018 at 20:09 comment added LPH @ Papa Poule I agree fully, it's a more graphic term.
Aug 20, 2018 at 19:58 comment added Papa Poule I like your translating the two seas as doing the “découpage” (instead of the indentations), as it avoids (without changing the meaning at all, imo) the arguable heaviness caused by the use of commas to offset the arguably nonessential phrase naming the two seas. I would, however, dare to suggest that “… indentations that the Ionian and Aegean seas carve out [from/of the land] in the shape of a plane tree leaf, which shape is rightly/aptly compared to Southern Greece.” might capture better than “trace out” what Mr. Verne might have meant by “découper.” cc: @THEGreatGatsby
