Large Antique Map of Asia including All of Southeast Asia, c.1792

About the Item

Antique map titled 'L' Asie Divisee en ses Empires, Royaumes, et Etats'. Attractive, large map of Asia including all of Southeast Asia. The cartography is archaic for the period with the continental outline following the Sanson-Jaillot model. Shows cities, towns, rivers, mountain ranges etc. Covers the area from the East African coast to New Guinea and from the Artic to Northern Australia. The island of Hokkaido is attached to the mainland as part of the Yupi peninsula and Korea is a long skinny peninsula. The decorative title and distance scale cartouches are also very similar to Jaillot's map of 1692. Source unknown, to be determined.
