5055 Jean Baptiste Bourguignon d'Anville (1697–1782) – Map of Siberia and Eastern Asia (The Third Part of Asia) – Copperplate Engraving (18th Century)

This finely engraved map titled The Third Part of Asia presents the vast regions of Siberia and neighboring parts of Central and Eastern Asia, based on the pioneering cartography of Jean Baptiste Bourguignon d'Anville. The map reflects d'Anville's commitment to geographic precision, showcasing extensive hydrographic networks, mountain systems, and settlement patterns without unnecessary embellishment.
Originally published in London as part of an English edition of d'Anville’s works, the map includes a neoclassical cartouche and was intended to educate European audiences about Asia’s largely unexplored interior. D'Anville's maps were praised for their scientific rigor and helped redefine European geographical knowledge in the 18th century.
