About the Item
Antique map titled 'Plan de Jedo - Platte Grond van Jedo'. A detailed street map of the city of Edo (modern Tokyo) in Japan, originally engraved by Bellin and Schley and reissued for Dutch editions of Prévost's monumental 'l'Histoire Géneral des Voyages. The map shows the city as it would have been during the Tokugawa Shogunate, also known as the Edo period. The map centres on the sprawling Edo Castle, here referrred to as the 'Palais de l'Empereur' and shown improbably with a French-style garden in parterre. The only other features of the city to be labelled are two of the early stages of the famous Tokaido road between Tokyo and Kyoto, these being the Nihonbashi Bridge and post town of Shinagawa. The rest of the city is mainly shown as a network of streets, though a number of pagodas, temples, and fortifications are also shown. Published circa 1750.
