Il Regno Della China detto presentamente Catay e Mangin

A rare Neapolitan map of the Chinese Empire, incorporating Japan, Korea, and parts of Tartary and Central Asia. Executed by Paolo Petrini and dated 1717, the map appeared in Petrini’s Atlante Partenopeo, a composite atlas based on European cartographic sources, particularly French models. Though clearly marked as based on Sanson’s provincial divisions, Petrini also drew on the work of Giacomo Cantelli (especially his 1682 Il Regno della China), integrating elements such as the extended peninsula north of Hokkaidō and the depiction of the Kingdom of the Yupy Tartars.
