This is a manuscript map by D'Anville made for the book 'Description géographique, historique, chronologique, politique et physique de l'empire de la Chine et de la Tartarie chinoise' by he Jesuit Jean-Baptiste Du Halde (1674-1743 ), confessor to the king Louis XIV (1638-1715). The sources of the book by Du Halde were prepared by Jesuit missionaries commissioned by Emperor Kangxi (1654-1722), who between 1708 and 1716 surveyed China. With these surveys it was printed in 1719 the woodblock Chinese Atlas '康熙皇輿全覽圖' -a copperplate edition was requested by the Emperor to Matteo Ripa (1682-1746) and the copper plates exist to this day. D'Anville made maps of all China provinces, this particular one is of the province of Guangdong and includes the Island of Hainan. This map resulted in the printed map 'Province de Quang-Tong' of 1737.
