Description |
English: A highly desirable c. 1810 mapping of Southeast Asia and the East Indies by the French cartographer Ambrose Tardieu. Covers from Burma to Australia and from Sumatra to New Guinea. Includes Siam (Thailand), Cambodia (Cambodge), Vietnam (Tonquin and ChochinCHine), Taiwan (Tai-ouan or Formose), Singapore (shown but not labeled), Sumatra, Java, Borneo ,the Philippines, and New Guinea. Offers limited inland detail throughout, but does identify a number of major cities including Pegu (near Rangoon), Siam (Bangkok), Batavia, and Manila. As this map was being made, the southern and western shores of New Guinea, had yet to be explored. Australia is identified as Nouvelle Hollande. A decorative title cartouche in the lower left quadrant depicts various traditional adornment and costume items supposedly common to the region. |
