"A New Map of China Drawn from Surveys Made by Order of the Emperor", Kitchin, Thomas

This later Kitchin map of China and its surroundings stretches from Tibet to the Sea of Japan, here called the Sea of Korea. China is dense with detail, with mountains, provinces, rivers, and many cities noted. Tay-wan or Formosa I., Nan-King, Canton, and the Gulf of Tonkin appear. There is a compass rose topped with a fleur-de-lis, two distance scales, a decorative title cartouche featuring figures in local dress near a massive vase, and a key at bottom left that translates regional geographic terms into English.
