English: Map of Hocsieu, China
Description
Nederlands: Kaart van Hocsieu (China) uit de Atlas van der Hagen, Koninklijke Bibliotheek, Den Haag Deel 4.

Linksboven een verklaring van de letters (A-D) in het Engels en het Nederlands.

Dr. Olfert Dapper (1636-1689) publiceerde na 1663 een groot aantal boeken. Hij schreef een geschiedenis van de stad Amsterdam en verzorgde de eerste Nederlandse vertaling van Herodotus. Hij is echter vooral bekend vanwege zijn vele beschrijvingen van vreemde landen die hij uit verschillende bronnen samenstelde, zonder dat hij de landen waarover hij schreef ooit zag. Dit stadsgezicht op Hochsieu is afkomstig uit een beschrijving van het Chinese Keizerrijk.

Een zwart-wit versie van deze afbeelding is hier te vinden: Koninklijke Bibliotheek, inv.nr. 388 A 5 deel I, na p. 204. Op die afbeelding ontbreken het Engelse opschrift en de Engelstalige legenda.

De reis van Pieter van Hoorn naar het keizerlijk hof in China vond plaats in 1666-1668.

Cf. Koninklijke Bibliotheek, Den Haag, inv. nr. 693 C 6 dl VII to. p. 109, inv. nr. 3032 B 13, to. p. 33 en inv. nr. 388 A 5 deel I, na p. 204.

Top left notes to the letters (A-D) in English and Dutch.

Dr. Olfer Dapper (1636-1689) published a large number of books after 1663. He wrote a history of the city of Amsterdam and furnished the first Dutch translation of Herodotus. Dapper was however best known for his many descriptions of foreign lands, which he compiled from various sources without ever having seen the countries in question. This city view of Hochsieu comes from a description of the Chinese Empire.

A black and white version of this image is to be found at Koninklijke Bibliotheek, inv.nr. 388 A 5 part 1, after p. 204. This picture is missing the English caption and the English-language key.

Pieter van Hoorn's journey to the emperor's court in China took place in 1666-1668.

Cf. Koninklijke Bibliotheek, The Hague, inv. nr. 693 C 6 part VII op. p. 109, inv. nr. 3032 B 13, op. p. 33 and inv. nr. 388 A 5 part I, after p. 204.
