The "Map of Asia" created by Johann Baptist Homann, a renowned German cartographer, is a significant historical artifact from the early 18th century. Johann Baptist Homann, born in 1664, was a celebrated engraver and publisher, famous for his detailed and decorative maps. His "Map of Asia" is particularly notable for its elaborate artistic elements and the detailed geographical information it provides, reflecting the understanding of Asian geography at the time.

This map is part of Homann’s broader efforts to provide comprehensive cartographic coverage of the known world, which he did through various atlases and individual maps. The "Map of Asia" features various regions of the continent with considerable accuracy for the period, including intricate depictions of topography, political boundaries, and significant cities. Additionally, the map is adorned with ornamental cartouches, sea monsters, and ships, which were typical of the Baroque period’s style in map-making.

Homann’s works were widely influential in disseminating geographical knowledge during the Enlightenment and were used as references in academic, educational, and navigation contexts. His "Map of Asia" not only serves as a historical record of the continent's early modern cartographic representation but also as a testament to the artistry involved in map-making during Homann’s time. This map remains a valuable resource for historians and cartography enthusiasts interested in the evolution of map-making and the depiction of Asia in European cartography.
