Bonne Map of Philippines, Formosa, Siam, Indochina
South China, 1780
Les Isles Philippines, celle de Formose, le Sud de la Chine, les Royaumes de Tunkin, de Cochinchine, de Camboge, de Siam des Laos.
Original 1780 copperplate-engraved map with hand coloring by renowned French cartographer Rigobert Bonne (1727–1795), hydrographer to the French Navy. This detailed and elegant map spans the Philippines, Formosa (Taiwan), southern China, and much of mainland Southeast Asia, including the kingdoms of Siam (Thailand), Laos, Cambodia, Cochinchina, and Tonkin (Vietnam).
Praised for its geographical accuracy and refined engraving style, Bonne’s map features coastlines, mountain ranges, rivers, and settlements, along with inset maps of the Isle de Guam and surrounding Pacific islands. The use of color and shading highlights territorial divisions and topography.
A fine and historically significant map, now a valued reference for historians, collectors, and researchers of 18th-century Southeast Asia.
