Dear Henny
You might want to have a look at an exhibition catalogue published in connection with an exhibition on Korean maps, which was held last October at Taegu Museum in Korea. The exhibition catalogue is called: Han'guk ui yot chido. You might be able to obtain a copy by phoning the museum on: (053) 768-6050.
Best wishes from

Dear list,
I have two things. Anyone interested in 17th century European maps about
Korea are invited to take a look at:
http://www.henny-savenije.demon.nl/maps.htm and
http://www.henny-savenije.demon.nl/maps2.htm
If anyone can tell me anything more about the Korean maps I would be happy.
I also collected all the 17th century Dutch (well I think I have them all)
documents mentioning Korea, but unfortunately I still have to translate
them, they are at:
