This colourful early 18th century map shows Asia along with part of Europe and Africa. It is decorated with a painting of Asian traders negotiating over a sale of carpets, while three lions, a ship and city walls complete the picture.

This map's cartouche features an illustration of three men bowing before an enthroned ruler. A second image is of a procession where a horned four-armed humanoid creature is being carried on poles by two bearers, while musicians follow behind.
