Korea, very rare early map P.F.X. De Charlevoix, 1736, Carte de la Coree

Rare early map (1736) of the Korean Peninsula, published in the work of Jesuit priest De Charlevoix about Japan, Korea and surrounding areas. The map is engraved by Dheulland and based on very early work of J.N. Bellin. This is an issue that was published 10 years prior to the more common map that later would be adapted for use in ´Histoire Generale des Voyages´.

Published in ´Histoire et description générale du Japon...´, P.F.X. De Charlevoix, Paris 1736, Gandouin et al.

Very good condition. Central fold, as published. Ample margins, thick paper. Clear print. Right margin partially extended with antique paper. Reverse side blank.
