Very good. Two sheets, joined by publisher. Small spots of soiling in margins. Folds into original covers. Size 19 x 27 Inches. A colorful c. 1860 ukiyo-e woodblock map of Nagasaki, published by Baik?d? It displays the port city in the wake of its opening to foreign trade as a treaty port, superseding its earlier role as Japan's outlet to the world via exclusive trade with Chinese and Dutch merchants. A Closer Look Oriented towards the northwest, this map covers both shores of Nagasaki Bay, recording streets, bridges, temples, shrines, agricultural fields (?), mountains, and other features. Both Japanese and foreign ships appear in the bay, some of the latter being steamships. Dejima (??), an artificial island near center, was Japan's only open port to the Western world for most of the Tokugawa period (1600 - 1868); the Dutch were granted exclusive trading rights and Dejima retains a Dutch flag atop a tall flagpole here. To the south of Dejima is the T?jinyashiki (????), a similar quarter reserved for Chinese merchants, as well as an area marked T?jinyashiki 'New Area' (Shinchi ??), which developed into Nagasaki's Chinatown. The area southwest of Dejima is where foreign warehouses were set up in the months preceding this map's publication. Foreign flags, warehouses, and even some churches can be seen here. Today, the area is home to a museum and gardens named Glover Gardens, after Thomas Blake Glover (1838 - 1912), a British merchant who played a prominent role among the foreign community in Nagasaki at the time. At the bottom and bottom-left are tables of distances between different points in Nagasaki, and between Nagasaki and major Japanese cities and ports, as well as a brief description of the port's history as an outlet for trade with Chinese and Dutch merchants. Opening the Window a Little More From the 1630s until the 1850s, the Tokugawa Shogunate pursued sakoku ('locked country') policies, restricting foreign trade to Chinese and Dutch merchants at Nagasaki. The shogunate was particularly concerned about the potential spread of Christianity, which in the 16th - 17th centuries had gained a foothold in southern Japan, where the Tokugawa were relatively weak. But after Japan's forcible opening at the hands of the Americans in the 1850s, culminating in the 1858 Treaty of Amity and Commerce (also known as the Harris Treaty), Nagasaki was one of five ports opened to foreign trade in 1859. In the following years, foreign merchants from multiple nations joined the Dutch and Japanese in Nagasaki, and the city became an even more important conduit for foreign ideas and knowledge. As the Tokugawa had feared all along, southern daimyo, especially from nearby Ch?sh? and Satsuma Domains, used these foreign connections to plot the downfall of the shogunate, which they achieved in 1868. Publication History and Census A map with this title and format was printed as early as 1802 by K?jud? (???), which is credited here. The present map was an enlarged reprint of the original by Baik?d? (???), with added features such as the foreign ships and warehouses mentioned above, which also help date it to c. 1860. A map of this title dated c. 1860 is noted among the holdings of the Library of Congress and the University of California Berkeley in the OCLC, though the example held by UC Berkeley has a slightly different format, with an additional, smaller sheet appended to those seen here, covering some of the islands southwest of Nagasaki. The University of British Columbia and Waseda University also hold examples matching the present one, which are not listed in the OCLC. References: OCLC 166424307.

R A R E . *** *** *** . . . AN EARLY WOODBLOCK COLOR MAP OF NAGASAKI . . . A "NEWLY CARVED" MAP OF NAGASAKI BAY & DESHIMA . . . DUTCH & CHINESE SHIPPING . * THE MAP: This map shows "SHIN SEN" ["NEWLY CARVED WOODBLOCK"] of Nagasaki Bay and environs, with special attention to Deshima & Chinese Islands where the Dutch and Chinese lived isolated and restricted from the mainland. It also shows the details of Nagasaki city, a lively foreign trading port. . The map clearly illustrates the two most important islands of Deshima and the Chinese. Each island had a bridge connecting it to the mainland, which was guarded by Tokugawa Samurai. Foreigners were forbidden by Japanese law from entering the mainland. . Products such as water & food were brought to the islands, as well as a good number of Japanese prostitutes, all sanctioned by the Shogun. . The Dutch Factory manager was granted audience with the Shogun in Edo once a year. This annual event was to pay homage to the Shogun. . The procession was conducted by the Samurai, as the group walked a very long distance to Edo. In Edo the Dutch representative paid his respects to the Shogun who sat behind a screen. The Dutchman was instructed to speak, dance, walk and perform. . There is a stunning and famous primary account of this by Dr. Engelbert Kaempfer published in 1827, please inquire with us as we have a copy in stock. . The harbor shows two large Dutch sailing vessel under full sail, with the Dutch and several other flags flying in the breeze. A large sea-going Chinese junk in full sail, most likely preparing to get under way. There are also two large Japanese junks moored at the shore line. There are numerous other smaller Japanese junk type vessels in the harbor. . At the corners are four Kanji [Chinese characters used by Japanese] noting North, South, East and West. With two cartouches inset at the lower left. The first showing a distant chart from Nagasaki to foreign countries. The second gives the distance from Nagasaki to other port cities in Japan. All distances are cited in Japanese Rim [miles]. At the extreme left of the cartouche is the Japanese colophon. . The map meticulously shows villages, various sights, shrine & temples, the quay, streets, harbors, beaches, rivers, important Japanese trading houses located on the mainland across from near the Dutch & Chinese residences. Other large Japanese trading company are shown, each street and block is named are labeled. . An historically important, a very decorative map. Earlier maps of Nagasaki are always difficult to find. All in all, a very nice clean example of an early 19th century map of the whole area. . In the colophon it states [we translate]: "Nagasaki is beautiful, flourishing city in a 4 km. square, with mountains in the East, South, North, with a good and large port in the West. There are many Dutch & Chinese merchants." . *** WOODBLOCK PRINTING: This work was printed on two large Deluxe size sheets of Washi [hand-made] paper, joined at the center. This map was printed on extraordinary large size cherry wood blocks, all of which was an expensive and extravagant production. The average woodblock print of the time was printed on a standard sheet ca. 23 x 36 cm. . The map was printed in polychrome: pastel shades of blue, yellow, green with black 'key' block outline. . *** DATING: The map as usual is undated, printed in Nagasaki. . It is certain the First Edition of this map was printed in Kyowa 2nd year [1801], illustrated in Nagayama [see below] as Nagasaki map no. 147. Our map herein offered is identical to Nagayama's with one exception. In the colophon at the lower left corner, the last box at the left shows a different publisher and their details. .

Antique map of Japan titled 'Japan - Environs of Tokio & Nagasaki'. Old map of Japan, includes inset maps of Tokyo, Nagasaki and surroundings. This map originates from 'The Times' atlas. Artists and Engravers: John George Bartholomew (22 March 1860 ? 14 April 1920) was a British cartographer and geographer. As a holder of a royal warrant, he used the title "Cartographer to the King"; for this reason he was sometimes known by the epithet "the Prince of Cartography". Bartholomew's longest lasting legacy is arguably naming the continent of Antarctica, which until his use of the term in 1890 had been largely ignored due to its lack of resources and harsh climate.

Map of Nagasaki ? "Nangasacki appellé par les Chinois Tchangki", c.1760 This finely engraved 18th-century map depicts the Japanese port city of Nagasaki (Nangasacki), here noted as being called 'Tchangki' by the Chinese. Oriented with the coastline at the top, the map presents a fortified city nestled between mountainous terrain, with the "Rivière de Nangasacki" flowing through its center. Small islands, including 'Mioxiema' and 'Paolata', appear offshore. A numbered key at the upper right identifies important landmarks, including: A. City of Nangasacki within its walls B. Fortress of the military governor C. Palace and smaller fortress of the governor D. Dutch lodge (*loge Hollandoise*) E. Large warehouse under the Chinese quartermaster's control F. Chinese lodge (*loge Chinoise*) G. Light boats for reconnaissance H. Places with cannon batteries J. Place for Dutch ships K. Place for Chinese ships A notable annotation on the map describes the "Grande montagne qui commande à la ville et sur laquelle on martyrisoit les Chrétiens" ? the large mountain overlooking the city where Christians were martyred, reflecting Japan's complex and often repressive relationship with Christianity during the Edo period. This engraving was executed by A. Porlier and is marked "Tome 9, No 1," indicating its position in a multi-volume Enlightenment-era work. Such maps were produced at a time when Japan was largely closed to foreign trade under the policy of 'sakoku', with Nagasaki as one of the very few ports open to limited international contact, primarily with the Dutch and Chinese. Collectors of Japanese history, cartography, and East Asian trade history will find this a valuable and visually engaging piece, capturing Nagasaki's unique position in the 18th-century global network. Condition: Very good for age, with central folds as issued. Minor toning and a few faint handling marks. Strong plate impression with fine detail in both topography and architectural depictions. Framing tips: A dark frame, such as ebony or black walnut, with a cream or light grey mount will draw out the delicate linework. For thematic displays, this map pairs beautifully with other 18th-century port city plans. Technique: Copperplate engraving Maker: A. Porlier sculp., French school, c.1760.
