Church Atlas | Asia | Vintage Map
The "Carta Generale di Asia" provides a general political overview of the entire Asian continent, excluding ecclesiastical divisions. It extends from Russia and Siberia in the north, across the Caspian Sea, Persia, and Arabia in the west, to China, Japan, and Southeast Asia in the east and southeast. India ("Hindostan"), Tibet, Afghanistan, and the Central Asian steppe and desert regions such as the Gobi are also documented in detail. The map is colored in delicate shades that distinguish various empires and regions, such as the "Impero Chinese," Persia, and the Ottoman Empire. Mountain ranges, river systems, and desert areas are finely delineated cartographically, while calligraphic lettering labels the surrounding seas, including the "Oceano Glaciale Artico" in the north and the "Mare dell'Indie" in the south. Japan and Korea are also visible on the east coast. The map thus displays the Central Asian and East Asian region in its full geographical extent.
