About the Item
Antique Map of Asia – Relief Atlas Map by Hachette, circa 1883
Description:
This antique map titled “Asie” was published by Hachette in Paris around 1883 and originates from their educational “Atlas en relief.” The map depicts the entire continent of Asia with shaded relief to illustrate the topography and elevations across the vast landmass.
The map shows political boundaries, major cities, rivers, and mountain ranges as known in the late 19th century. The hypsometric tinting uses a scale of colours from green lowlands to brown high mountains, providing a clear visual understanding of Asia’s physical geography, including the Himalayas, Tibetan Plateau, and extensive mountain systems of Central Asia. European colonial possessions in Asia are indicated with different coloured outlines, representing British, Russian, Portuguese, and Spanish territories.
Key features include India under British rule, the Russian Empire stretching into Siberia and Central Asia, China with historical provinces, the Japanese archipelago, Southeast Asia with the Dutch East Indies, and the Philippine Islands. The map also depicts sea routes and major oceanic expanses like the Indian Ocean, Arabian Sea, and Pacific regions. It is titled at the top “Asie” with publication details below: “E. Hachette, Editeur, 79, Rue Serpente, à Paris.”
Condition:
Good condition overall. Clean impression with original colouring intact. Minor age toning and some faint foxing in the wide margins, not affecting the printed area.
Framing tip:
This map of Asia will display beautifully when float-mounted in a dark wood or black frame to emphasise its pastel colours and engraved detail. Ideal for study walls, travel-themed interiors, or antique map collections focusing on 19th-century educational cartography.
