Note:

This nautical chart depicts the South China Sea with the coasts of Vietnam and China, including the Island of Hainan, the Paracel Islands, the Philippines and a small south tip of Taiwan. Made most likely as navigational aid it displays some soundings with place names along the coast lines with inland mostly blank. The Paracel bank is in the Vaz Dourado type and, along with other shoals and sand banks, is colored yellow. It is already accompanied by the triangular set on its northeast side with the designation 'Croix de S.t Anthoine ou Les Lunettes".
