"Carte des Isles Philippines, Dressee sur la Carte Espagnole du R.P. Murillo de Velarde Ire. Feuille...", Bellin, Jacques Nicolas

This small and handsome map depicts the northern islands of the Philippine archipelago, including Luzon and Mindoro. Manila, the capital of the Philippines, is located as well. Bellin credits Jesuit priest Pedro Murillo Velarde as the source for the cartography of the region. The map has good detail throughout and is adorned by a lovely rococo-style title cartouche.
