Paris, c.1758, coloured, 280 x 225mm.

An uncommon issue of this map of Korea. The language of the title cartouche is French and notes that the map was copied after an English Map. A note at "Isle de Quelpaert" indicates that the island was drawn after Dutch maps. There is a second title under the map, in Dutch "Kaart van't Landschap Quan-Tong, of Lyau-Tong; en van't Koningryk Kau-Li of Korea".
