Original copper-engraved sea chart of Manilla (57.5 x 41.5 cm overall) printed on heavy paper. The chart extends from the North coast of Mindoro Island to north of Pointe de Capones, centered on Manilla Bay and Subec Bay. It is based on the most progressive sources available to the French Navy. European interest in Manila Bay, and the Philippines in general, was heightened upon hearing news of British Admiral George Anson's capture of a Spanish Manila Galleon off of Cabo Espiritu Santo, in 1743. A few isolated spots, generally a very good clean copy. The present chart was drafted by French sailor and hydrographer Jean-Batiste de Mannevillette (1707-80). Mannevillette apprenticed under the great royal cartographer Guillaume De L'Isle. He then joined the maritime service of the Compagnie des Indes, eventually attaining the rank of captain. Upon his return to Paris, Mannevillette was appointed as director of the Dépôt des Cartes et Plans de la Navigation des Indes. In 1745, he published the first edition of his sea atlas of Asian waters, Le Neptune Oriental, regarded as a major achievement and a library indispensable to navigators. The high quality of Mannevillette's charts won him the acclaim of both mariners and academics alike, and he was admitted as a fellow of the Academy of Sciences. He published a second, heavily revised, edition of the Neptune Oriental in 1775., from which the present chart derives.

Born in Le Havre to a seafaring family Apres de Mannevillette had a long and distinguished career as a navigator and was one of the first French hydrographers. After studying mathematics in Paris, he gained early experience of the sea in a voyage to the Caribbean at the age of nineteen. During many subsequent voyages he assembled a collection of material for his East Indian hydrographic atlas called 'Neptune Oriental' which was published in 1745 with the support of the Academie des Sciences. In 1762 he was promoted to director of the depository of all the reports, charts and plans relating to the navigation of the vessels of the Company in the Orient, and over the succeeding years several expanded editions of this atlas were issued. A second edition of the 'Instructions' was posthumously published in 1811.  The second part is the Supplément, issued in 1781, which includes a biography of the author.
