'The Empire of China and island of Japan. Agreeable to Modern History' from "Atlas Minor", by Herman Moll, published by Thomas & John Bowles, London, 1732.

Herman Moll 1654 -1732

A Dutch émigré who came to London about 1680 and worked there as an engraver, later setting up his own business and becoming, after the turn of the century, the foremost map publisher in England. His prolific output covered a wide range of loose maps of all parts of the world, varying from miniatures to very decorative large maps as well as atlases. His work enjoyed a high reputation and much of it was copied by other publishers, a fact of which he was always very conscious .

Condition: The map is in very good condition. Folds as issued.
