AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Condition: good. With folds as issued. Slightly browned.

This map of Japan is based on the Kaempfer/Scheuchzer type. Here, Tirion corrects his previous map of Japan by including the more accurate northern tip of Honshu and southern tip of Hokkaido, based on Kaempfer’s manuscript, or perhaps taken from an inset on Scheuchzer’s map. The route of the Dutch expedition between Nagasaki and Edo is shown.
