Jean Baptiste Nolin (1657–1708) was a French cartographer and map publisher who worked in the late 17th and early 18th centuries. He was known for his detailed and accurate maps, particularly those depicting different regions of the world.

One of Nolin's notable works is titled "L'Asie selon les Mémoires les plus Nouveaux" (Asia according to the Most Recent Accounts), which was published in 1690. This map of Asia was created based on the latest geographical knowledge and explorations of the time.

Nolin's map of Asia would have depicted the major countries, cities, rivers, mountain ranges, and other geographical features of the continent as known in the late 17th century. It would have included various territories and regions, as well as important trade routes and trading posts.

As was common for maps of the time, Nolin's map would have featured ornate cartouches, compass roses, and decorative elements. However, it's important to note that the level of detail and accuracy in 17th-century maps may not match modern standards, as geographical knowledge and mapping techniques have significantly evolved over the centuries.

Despite the limitations of the time, Nolin's maps were highly regarded for their craftsmanship and were influential in shaping the understanding of geography and exploration during that era.
