Kunyu Quantu
The Kunyu Quantu, by Ferdinand Verbiest in 1674.
The Kunyu Quantu (simplified Chinese: 坤舆全图; traditional Chinese: 坤輿全圖; pinyin: Kūnyú Quántú), or Full Map of the World, was a map of the world developed by Jesuit father Ferdinand Verbiest during his mission in China in 1674.[1] A copy is in the Hunterian Museum.
The map follows the earlier works of Matteo Ricci, such as the Kunyu Wanguo Quantu.
