Title	L’ Asie Suivant les Nouvelles Decouvertes dont les Point Principaux ..
	Decorative map shows complete Asia with three decorative cartouches.This map, which is original to De Fer, is a continuous landbridge extending from northern Korea and eastern Siberia across to America. Hokkaido appears as a small circular island north of Japan.The northern coastline of Asia is based on Witsen's explorations including Cap Tabin and Cap Glace. The interior is filled with details, including what appears to be a road from Moscow to Peking, and the Great Wall of China.The Caspian Sea is presented in an unusual shape. India is misshapen and the coastline of a portion of New Guinea is incorrectly named as Nouvelle Zeelande.
