Description
A detailed Victorian map of Tibet, Mongolia and Manchuria, within an ornate border, decorated with six vignette scenes, including views of Lhasa, Leh (now part of Ladakh in India) and the Great Wall of China.
The map was drawn and engraved by John Rapkin for the 'The Illustrated Atlas, and Modern History of the World, Geographical Political, Commercial & Statistical', edited by Montgomery Martin, which was one of the last decorative atlases to be published.
