This image contains digital watermarking or credits in the image itself. The usage of visible watermarks is discouraged.

Ensure that removed information is present in the image description page and replace this template with {{Metadata from image}} or {{Attribution metadata from licensed image}}.

Caution: Before removing a watermark from a copyrighted image, please read the WMF's analysis of the legal ramifications of doing so, as well as Commons' proposed policy regarding watermarks.

Summary[edit]

Description
English: This map is based on Frederick de Wit's map of circa 1689. It is rendered with good detail throughout the south and southeast reflecting the surveys of the Dutch East India Company, while northern and central Asia is filled mostly with mountains, deserts and forests and the northeast coastline is severely truncated. A detached coastline of Yedso appears to the north of Japan. The work of the Jesuit missionaries is reflected in the well-documented region of China. The title cartouche was also copied from De Wit and features a busy scene including traders with their cargo. This is the second state with Philip Lea's address at ye Atlas and Hercules in Cheapside.

Licensing[edit]

This image is in the public domain because it is a mere mechanical scan or photocopy of a public domain original, or – from the available evidence – is so similar to such a scan or photocopy that no copyright protection can be expected to arise. The original itself is in the public domain for the following reason:
Public domain

This work is in the public domain in its country of origin and other countries and areas where the copyright term is the author's life plus 100 years or fewer.

You must also include a United States public domain tag to indicate why this work is in the public domain in the United States.
This file has been identified as being free of known restrictions under copyright law, including all related and neighboring rights.

This tag is designed for use where there may be a need to assert that any enhancements (eg brightness, contrast, colour-matching, sharpening) are in themselves insufficiently creative to generate a new copyright. It can be used where it is unknown whether any enhancements have been made, as well as when the enhancements are clear but insufficient. For known raw unenhanced scans you can use an appropriate {{PD-old}} tag instead. For usage, see Commons:When to use the PD-scan tag.

Note: This tag applies to scans and photocopies only. For photographs of public domain originals taken from afar, {{PD-Art}} may be applicable. See Commons:When to use the PD-Art tag.
