This print showcases a remarkable piece of cartographic history - the "CHINA: FUJIAN MAP, 1662". Engraved by the skilled hands of John Blaeu and published in Amsterdam during the same year, this map offers an exquisite depiction of Fujian province in China. With intricate details and precision, it not only encompasses the entire province but also reveals a glimpse of Taiwan (then known as Formosa) and the Strait of Taiwan. The fusion of Dutch and Chinese influences is evident in this masterpiece, reflecting cultural exchange during that era. The engraving itself is a testament to Blaeu's expertise as he skillfully captures every contour, river, and landmark with utmost accuracy. It serves as a valuable historical artifact from the Ching Dynasty period. Jan Blaeu's Atlas Major was renowned for its comprehensive collection of maps from around the world. This particular map holds significance due to its portrayal of Fujian Province - an area rich in natural beauty and cultural heritage.
