Blind dentelle pattern tooled on edges of covers; pasted and free endpapers marbled. , John or Johann Nieuhof, 1618 ? 1672 is best known for the account of his journey from "Guangzhou"Canton to Peking in 1655-1657, which enabled him to become an authoritative Western writer on China. The book was first published in Dutch in 1665 by Johan's brother Hendrik and the Amsterdam based publisher and printer Jacob van Meurs. The publication was successful, several edited editions followed, geared towards commercial interests, also translated into French, German, Latin and eventually into English. The English version was not published by Van Meurs, but by John Ogilby instead. The book consists of the notes and illustrations that Nieuhof made in his position as a steward on Peter de Goyer and Jacob de Keizer's embassy to the emperor of China. The work itself is split into two parts. The first part contains the written account of the embassy led by Peter de Goyer and Jacob de Keizer to the emperor of China. It details the entire journey from "Guangzhou"Canton to Peking and back again. This part also contains descriptions and depictions of all that the embassy came to pass on its trip. The second part consists of an overview of China, describing bridges, mountains, temples, customs and costumes supported by illustrations. Prior to this period, the image of the Chinese in Europe was dominated by fantasy illustrations. Many subsequent artists and architects based their work on Nieuhof's pictures.
