EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning engraving from 1798, titled Carte d'une partie de la Mer de Chine, offers a glimpse into the intricate world of cartography in the 18th century. Created by the French School and based on observations by Vice-Admiral Rosili, this map was meticulously crafted at the Depot des Cartes et Plans de la Marine.
Measuring 99x66 cm, this detailed map showcases parts of the South China Sea, including Vietnam and Hainan. The border is graduated for latitude and longitude with rhumb lines adding to its navigational utility. The Paris meridian serves as a reference point for orientation.
The historical significance of this piece is evident in its scale of approximately 1:2,500,000 - a testament to the precision and dedication of early cartographers. It provides valuable insights into maritime navigation during that era and sheds light on colonial interests in Asia.
Displayed at the National Maritime Museum in London, UK, this engraving captures not only geographical information but also cultural connections between Europe and Asia. Its black-and-white aesthetic adds a timeless quality to its depiction of an ever-changing seascape.
Overall, this print serves as a reminder of our enduring fascination with maps and exploration throughout history.
