- Description
- Appropriately, the sheet for Hopeh that takes in Peking is the most ornate of Martinis fifteen provincial maps. Blaeus designer has provided a delightful title-piece, formed of two Chinese elders seated in ornamental chairs, with their servants and a pair of flamboyant birds. Curiously, although Peking had been named since the 15th century (after a spell as Kublai Khans Camnalue), it is here spelled Xuntien.
