A scarce and attractive map showing the state of European knowledge of Asia at the end of the 17th century. There is little interior detail and a speculative coastline for northeast Asia, a semi-defined land of Yedso north of Japan, and a greatly exaggerated Maldives. In contrast, we see detailed knowledge of China as a result of activities by the Jesuits and well-defined East Indies as a result of surveys by the VOC (Dutch East India Company). There is a fine full color cartouche of an eastern caravan. A very good example of Dutch cartography from the end of its Golden Age.
