Les Indes Orientales Et Leur ARchipel. - Celestial&Thematic exploration routesLes Indes Orientales Et Leur Archipel. A crisp engraving by a French master with light original hand color. A fine example of French cartography from the time, with a nice sense of presentation and decorative cartouche. Stunning for the far East, beautifully crude and hypothetical reaching from India to Taiwan and as far south as the coast of New Guinea. Notes many place names. Condition is very good.
