This is an extremely rare 19th-century example of the Chinese ‘Blue Map’ of the world.⠀
.⠀
The map shows China at the height of the Qing empire, celebrating the ‘unified status of all Chinese borders'.⠀
.⠀
'The glorious deep blue and green colours deliberately reference Chinese antique culture', says Eugenio Donadoni, our Books and Manuscripts specialist in London (@eugeniodonadoni).⠀
.⠀
'The map recalls painting styles that were popular at the imperial court of the Tang dynasty (618-907).'⠀
.⠀
Qianren Huang (1694-1771). 'Complete Geographical Map of the Great Qing Dynasty', Jiaqing period (1760-1820) perhaps c.1811. 132 x 234 cm. Estimate: £50,000–80,000.⠀
.⠀
Valuable Books and Manuscripts – 12 December at Christie's London.⠀
