This small, uncommon map of Japan, drawn on the Blaeu/Martini model, depicts a compact Honshu. The Land of Iesso is joined with the mainland and a faintly engraved coastline indicates that the region is unexplored. Korea is also merged with the Asian continent, so that it does not even appear to be a peninsula. The Sea of Corea includes a note that pearl fishing is done in all the small rivers entering the sea. An inset of the Ladrone Islands fills the region to the east of Companys Land.
