1854Best.-Nr. M7535Baltimore: Jacob Monk 1854. Some minor discolourations and some marginal chipping and staining not affecting the map altogether a very good copy laid down on original canvas as a scroll on two wooden rods. . Notes: Inset map of the world sits beneath the title in the lower left corner. It is centred on the Americas and charts the course of Wilkes' circumnavigation of the globe in the 1840s. To its right sits an index of counties and towns. Above the title on the left side are a legend and scale. On the right by the mid margin is a table of distances. The oceans are decorated with tall ships and the whole map sits within a decorative floral border. This map marks the dawn of the Manifest Destiny era of American history. Soon after the American victory of Mexico large new states and territories were carved out from the newly acquired land. Here we see the newly formed California and Texas along with the Oregon and Washington territories securing the country's claim to the Pacific coast. With California's gold rush getting into full swing the map accentuates many details of that state's gold region. North-South tensions are revealed in the ambiguity of the central states and territories: Northern interests sought to create a massive Nebraska territory which would have included present-day Kansas; however Southern lawmakers pressed Congress to make two separate territories.

Notes: John or Johann Nieuhof 1618 – 1672 is best known for the account of his journey from "Guangzhou"Canton to Peking in 1655-1657 which enabled him to become an authoritative Western writer on China. The book was first published in Dutch in 1665 by Johan's brother Hendrik and the Amsterdam based publisher and printer Jacob van Meurs. The publication was successful several edited editions followed geared towards commercial interests also translated into French German Latin and eventually into English. The English version was not published by Van Meurs but by John Ogilby instead. The book consists of the notes and illustrations that Nieuhof made in his position as a steward on Peter de Goyer and Jacob de Keizer's embassy to the emperor of China. The work itself is split into two parts. The first part contains the written account of the embassy led by Peter de Goyer and Jacob de Keizer to the emperor of China.

The second part consists of an overview of China describing bridges mountains temples customs and costumes supported by illustrations. Prior to this period the image of the Chinese in Europe was dominated by fantasy illustrations. Many subsequent artists and architects based their work on Nieuhof's pictures.
