Description
Rare map of Tartary, which appeared in Picart's Tresor des carte Geographiques, published in Paris.
The map shows the Great Wall of China and part of what would be Alaska in modern times, although what is show is arguably more myth than fact.
Picart's map is based upon Jansson's map, published in his Atlas Minor in 1628.
The map is extremely rare, with no appearances in AMPR in the past 30 years.
