China Map - Villes de la Province de Chensi, Bellin 1748

Description:
This rare antique copperplate map depicts two town plans in the province of Shanxi, China, including Si-Ngan-Fu and Tchouang Lan (Chwang Lan).

His maps were widely recognized for their accuracy and detail, particularly those created for the Ministère de la Marine.
