A detailed map of Japan, showing the "Terre D'Yesso" and coast of Korea. Japan is shown with original outline and wash colour dividing the seven regions and with further subdivisions to show the sixty-six kingdoms. The central title cartouche is surrounded by an intricate engraving with flora, fauna and two views of Japanese cities with mountains beyond. An attractive, finely-engraved item in unusually bright and attractive original colour.
