A finely engraved and highly detailed map of Russia. Trade roads are shown between Peking and Moscow; Korea is shown as an island. A dedication to Prince Peter Alexandrovich, listing the extent of Russia, appears in the top left; the title cartouche at bottom left is flanked by a Russian and Chinese figure, with two big cats. Based on Cornelis Le Bruyn's "Voyages", published by the mapmaker N.Witsen, Burgomaster of Amsterdam; this also contained information on the journey of Everard Ysbrants Ides, Russian ambassador to China.
