Description
Beautiful copperplate engraved Geographical and Historical map of China from Lavoisne’s 1821 Historical Atlas. Lovely map of “…the most ancient empire of the world.” Accompanying text states that China was formed at the dispersion of Noah’s posterity, possibly by Fo-hi, which most historians of the day considered to be Noah himself. The text that frames the map is fascinating, and show what historical theories were 200 years ago. Plate 64: “China and the Tributary Kingdom of Corea, for the Elucidation of Lavoisne’s Genealogical, Historical, Chronological & Geographical Atlas.” Published 1821 by Carey & Lea. Tiniest bit of very light water staining at top center and upper corner paper edges, else fine. Map plate 8.5 x 10.75. Total image area 16.5 x 20.25
