Very good. Wide clean margins. Size 31.5 x 22.25 Inches. A stunning large-format 1796 nautical chart and city map of Macao, its harbor, and the surrounding seas. This map was drawn by Benjamin Baker based on observations collected by the George Macartney Embassy - the first British embassy to China. The map is impressively proportioned and finely engraved, offering meticulous detail of Portugal's primary entrepôt in China. This map is considered the largest and finest 18th-century map of Macao obtainable. The Failed Embassy George Macartney was dispatched to Beijing in 1792 with a mission from King George III to convince the Chinese Emperor Qianlong to ease restrictions on trade between Great Britain and China, and to allow the British to have a permanent embassy. The well-equipped and impressive embassy traveled via Madeira, Tenerife, Rio de Janeiro, the Cape of Good Hope, Indonesia, and Macau. Macartney was accompanied by George Leonard Staunton (1737 - 1801) who served as the expedition's secretary and chronicler, and Staunton's 11-year-old son, nominally the ambassador's page, but also the only person in the retinue able to speak Mandarin. The Embassy was poorly managed from the beginning and despite considerable pomp from the English perspective, appeared poor and rag-tag to the Qianlong Emperor. Partly through lack of preparation, partly through arrogance, and partly due to the Emperor's distaste for the British, the Embassy failed in all of its primary objectives. They did accomplish some reconnaissance bringing to England some of the earliest first-hand accounts of the distant empire. While much has been made of Macartney's refusal to kowtow to the emperor, the failure of the mission might equally be laid to the Chinese Emperor's insistence - in a subsequent letter to King George III - in referring to all Europeans as 'barbarians', all nations of the earth as being subordinate to China, and addressing the king himself as a Chinese subject, abjuring him to 'Tremblingly obey and show no negligence!' Macao Macao, or Macau, is a former colony of the Portuguese Empire established in 1557 as a trade entrepôt with Ming China. Macau reached its peak of prosperity in the late 16th and early 17th centuries, transforming from a small trading center into a major city. When the Qing conquered China in 1644, foreign maritime trade was banned, leaving Macao as the only access point for foreign trade into China. Later, regulations were loosened, and the Canton system was reinstated, but all foreign ships were required to stop at Macau before proceeding to Guangzhou / Canton. Following the First Opium War (1839 - 1842) and the establishment of Hong Kong (1841) as a British Crown Colony, Macau lost its role as a major port and entered into a long period of decline. Portugal paid an annual rent and administered the territory under Chinese sovereignty until 1887, when it gained perpetual colonial rights in the Sino-Portuguese Treaty of Peking. The colony remained under Portuguese rule until 1999, when it was transferred to China. Today, like nearby Hong Kong, Macau is considered a special administrative region of the People's Republic of China. Publication History and Census The map was drawn by Benjamin Baker and published by George Nicol to illustrate George Leonard Staunton's An authentic account of an embassy from the King of Great Britain to the Emperor of China . The map is rare to the market, but well represented institutionally. References: OCLC 213892451. Library of Congress, G7823.M2 1796 .B2 TIL.

Good. Verso repairs to centerfold separations. Closed tear extending one-half (.5) inch into printed area from bottom margin near centerfold repaired on verso. Margins trimmed to border, with some loss to border. Size 23.5 x 35.25 Inches. This is an 1853 French Dépôt de la Marine nautical map of the coast of China from Hainan to Nan'ao Island (Namao), including Macao, Hong Kong, and Guangzhou (Canton). The chart was issued to support growing French trade with China in the Treaty Port Era. French Trade with China Guangzhou (Canton) had been a center for international trade for over 1,000 years by the time this chart was published. From 1700 to the 1842 Treaty of Nanking, the 'Canton System' forced all foreign trade with China to pass through Canton. After the Treaty of Nanking, five open treaty ports (Shanghai, Canton (Guangzhou), Ningpo (Ningbo), Foochow (Fuzhou), and Amoy (Xiamen) opened, and Hong Kong was leased to the British Empire. On October 24, 1844, France signed the Treaty of Whampoa with the Chinese, which stipulated that China would grant France the same privileges it granted to Britain in 1842, including the opening of the new treaty ports to French merchants, a fixed tariff on Sino-French trade, extraterritorial privileges for French citizens in China, and the right to station consuls in China. The first French Catholic charity was founded in 1843, after which French Catholic missionaries were extremely active throughout China. This chart, published between the First and Second Opium Wars, focuses on Canton and the surrounding region, underscoring the city's continued importance to French traders. Publication History and Census This map was created by Ferdinand Antoine Jules de la Roche-Poincié and published by the French Dépôt de la Marine in 1853 during the Second French Empire. An empty OCLC record exists for this map, suggesting that a former OCLC member institution created the entry. References: OCLC 556906413. Signed by Author(s).
