Manuscript map of Nangong County, Hebei Province. Originally made for administrative use, judging from the letter written in the pasted pink sheet at the upper right corner and the bilingual official seal “Nangong Xian Yin” (Seal of Nangong County) with Chinese and Manchu characters stamped on the front cover. As for the letter written on the pink sheet, several terms of respect reveal that the recipient of this map out-ranked the giver. The letter starts with an introduction of the geographical features of Nangong County, then the military forces and population. Eight routes setting off from the county towards different directions are elaborately listed in the letter. These routes are reflected in the map with ink dotted lines, bearing a radiate configuration around the city walls of Nangong County. Names of routes are written on pink labels pasted beside the routes. Names of destination and distance mileage are also given. The map shows the north at the bottom. The composition of the present lot is very similar to that of Nangong Xian Hedao Tu (Map of Rivers in Nangong County) in Nangong Xian Zhi (Gazetteer of Nangong County) published in 1831. This map was preserved in the later version of the gazetteer produced in 1904, but did not appear in the earlier version released in 1673 (Kangxi period). It is not a surprise that the artist of the present lot had the opportunity to review maps in the gazetteer projects conducted by the local government and chose an illustration from the gazetteers as the compositional skeleton of his map. Thus, the date of the present lot can be narrowed to from 1831 to the end of the Qing dynasty.
