Description: Hokkaido Japan Jesso Edo Period Company Land 1685 Mallet engraved hand color map Terre de Iesso. (Old Maps, 19th Century Maps, Asia, Japan, Edo Period, Tokugawa Shogunate, Hokkaido, Iesso, Company Land). Issued 1685, Paris/ Frankfurt for A.M. Mallet by Zunner. Charming 17th century copper engraved map with lovely hand color. Includes representation of fictional Company's Land plus numerous tall mast sailing ships. The image has a near folk-art feel, a style unique to this historical era. Utterly unlike anything produced today and of modern aesthetic appeal for this reason. Mostly clean and well preserved example, the image displays a fine patina. Blank on reverse. Sheet measures c. 7 7/8" H x 5 7/8" W. Printed area measures c. 5 1/2" H x 4" W.
