Note:
This map depicts the island of Japan showing provinces (delineated via dotted lines), islands, towns, mountains and rivers. It was one of the best maps of Japan from the mid-18th century. The main island of Honshu is named as 'Isle de Nipon', Kyushu is marked 'Isle de Ximo' and Shikoku as 'I. de Xixoco'. The map is however missing the island of Hokkaido that was already standard at the time with the name of Yezo.
