This is a plan of the harbor and city of Nagasaki, Japan, and it is centered on the important trading island of Dejima (Desima). This was a semi-artificial island used as a trade outpost where the Dutch East India Company was “confined” while doing trade with Japan. The title cartouche also includes a legend for six locations such as governments placements, the prison (right in the middle of the build up area) and the station of the harbor inspectors. Bellin did a slightly larger version of this map in1836 for Charlevoix ‘Histoire et Description Generale du Japon'.
