‎SHAOLIN SI. [SHAO-LIN MONASTERY/TEMPLE, CHINA.]‎

‎LI DAI SHAOLIN SHI GIA JEN WU SHI GI. HISTORICAL CHINA MAP. A MAGNIFICENT & LARG‎

‎Edo 1750 Suharaya Mohei. Large folding map 170 x 200 cm. old mended worming rebackedpastel colors Japanese reprint of a map printed in Henan in 1679 folds down to be 21.5 x 25.5 cm. woodblock printed hand color. V E R Y R A R E ! . . AN EXCEPTIONALLY RARE WALL-SIZE MAP OF CHINA . . EXECTED BY A SHAOLIN ZEN MASTER The Shaolin Xi Monastery/Temple is a Chán Zen Buddhist temple at Song Shan near Zheng Zhou City Henan Province in Dengfeng China. It was led by Venerable abbot Shi Yongxìn. founded in the 5th century the monastery has been famous for centuries its association with Chinese martial arts and particularly with Shaolin Kung Fu. It is also a Mahayana Buddhist monastery perhaps best known to the Western world. . The Shaolin Monastery and its famed Pagoda Forest were inscribed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 2010 as part of the Historic Monuments of Dengfeng. Extracted from Wikipedia. . A RARE EDITION: Reprinted and published in Japan by Katsuragawa Hosan in 1750 reproduced from the Chinese original of Kangxi 27 1679. The original Chinese edition has been exceptionally obscure and impossible to come by for over the last two-hundred years and is believed now to be lost to posterity. . PRINTING TECHNIQUE AND THE PAPER: The work is woodblock printed by hand on hand-made Washi paper then hand-colored in delicate pastels. . CHINESE VIEW OF ANCIENT CHINA: This grand scale work covers a very large space and is quite handsome suitable for framing and display. The map shows a full view of all of China from the Great Wall in the North Shanghai the East coast down to the oceans in the South and Hainan Island and the coasts along he Eastern shores. This is a spectacular work showing each province in pastel colors with outlines large numbers of place names rivers & the major waterways mountains named and located. By and large inspired to show all of the known lands considered a part of China delineating the country and its exterior boundaries. . Japan and other islands are not shown but boxes with notes in Chinese as to their existence and location are well documented. The lower portion has text discussing the population of the various provinces and other notes. Areas beyond the traditional lines of China i.e.: North of the Great Wall and to . RARITY OF THE MAP AND ITS MAKERS: This grand-scale and truly spectacular work is virtually never found on the market. The Shaolin Monastery monks were the original founders of the celebrated and now famous Kung-fu martial art school located in Henan province. The priests were legendary and the most feared for their martial art prowess. They were also covert with their powerful political force in China. . SHAOLIN SI TEMPLE/MONASTERY LEGENDARY CUSTOMS: Priests who passed the highest level of Kung-fu martial art were invited to participate in a recognition ceremony. They were allowed to self-brand themselves by picking up a red-hot iron brazier that had long temple dragon decorations on the sides. The branding was accomplished by clamping the brazier between their forearms until the dragon image was branded on them. These brazier dragons are identical to the long dragon found at the top of this historic map. Another ancient practices used was the Jieba. It is an ancient ceremony where nine marks are burned onto the head with sticks of incense. In 2007 the Chinese government partially lifted the 300-year ban of the Jieba allowing the the mentally and physically prepared to participate in the ancient tradition. Incense or moxa was used on top of the shaved head and burned in a ceremony of dedication to the Shaolin Si temple/monastery by the most skilled of martial artists. WHY THE DRAGON SYMBOL WAS USED BY SHAOLIN MONKS: The top of the map show the dragon as a symbol of the Shaolin Si. In China the dragon is the first of twelve zodiac animals and is the most powerful of all and represents the ultimate and greatest of all powers known. It is also the one and only legendary animal in the zodiac the rest are actual animals. Because this map was conceived of carved and printed at the Shaolin Xi monastery or temple by these very priests they put the most powerful symbol at the top a dragon. The symbolic meaning indicated that China was superior to all other nations. It was also a private pun by the Shaolin priests indicating for all to see and know that the Shaolin temple and its priests were above all others. Additionally it reminded and indicated that the Shaolin priest were the most powerful martial artists and covert political force in all China. . RARITY: The original Chinese edition has been exceptionally obscure and impossible to come by for over the last two-hundred years and is believed now to be lost to posterity. Shaolin Si temple/monastery imprints are very R A R E ! Few references or examples exist of their woodblock printed works. This edition was a copy of the original re-carved by the Japanese and reissued. Not only is this map of great interest to Chan Zen Buddhists Shaolin Kung-fu collectors martial artists and historians but to students of Chinese cartography collectors and museums. . CONDITION: The map has been professionally re-backed in its distant past due to the large amount of old worming. It is now solid and stable. Because of the rarity of this work a complete map found in any condition would be now considered exceptionally R A R E ! Please review images posted to our website to observe the restored condition. . THE COVERS: The map has been rebound in non-original paper covers perhaps about 100 years ago. It is contained in a brown cloth Chuan Chitsu folding slipcase with ivory clasps cloth a bit faded one edge a bit worn else clean & solid. . THE SCANS: While we have made efforts to take good digital photographs and scans of our copy due to the exceptionally large size of the map these photos are not of the highest quality. We therefore are additionally using copies of this map from the Oda reference book illustrations as samples of what the map is like. Please note the following digital images are from Oda: cover.jpg illus08.jpg & illus12.jpg the balance are from our digital camera. . Any client who purchases this map may be interested in the Japanese text found in Oda. Upon request we are happy to provide a copy of his entry. . BIBLIOGRAPHY: G.
