Baptiste Bourguignon d'Anville (1697-1782), the great cartographer, geographer, and map collector, to compile his Nouvel atlas de la Chine, de la Tartarie Chinoise et du Thibet (New atlas of China, Chinese Tartary, and Tibet). This atlas was published in Holland in 1737 as a companion work to Father J.-B. Du Halde's Description géographique, historique, chronologique, politique, et physique de l'empire de la Chine (Geographic, historical, chronological, political, and physical description of the Chinese Empire), published in 1735. The map presented here, of China, Korea, and the neighboring parts of Central Asia then known as Tartary, in Dutch and French, is an adaptation of one of D'Anville's maps. The subtitle, in Dutch at the bottom and in French in the cartouche, states that it is based on the Jesuit surveys. Place-names are in French and Dutch, with the Dutch translations sometimes given in brackets. The Great Wall, in northern China, is shown. The scale is in French leagues, and the prime meridian is set at Ferro Island, the southwestern-most of the Canary Islands.
