The second edition of the first printed sea chart of the region of Hong Kong and southern China. A rare important chart from one of the truly great sea atlases ever printed. Dudley’s ‘Arcano del Mare’ was first printed in 1646-48 and was the first sea atlas of the world, and the first to use Mercator’s projection throughout. This map extends from the North Vietnamese coast to southern China and the Pearl River delta. ‘China in European Maps’ pl. no. 27.
