Join us over lunch, as @MSCActions fellow Dr Sonia Favi takes us on a journey of maps through Tokugawa Japan, 1603-1868.
Witness our Visualiser in action to view maps too large to exhibit, including a spectacular and rare one of Mount Fuji. Dr Sonia Favi is a Marie Sklodowska-Curie Actions Fellow who is carrying out postdoctoral research on the Japanese Collections. In this Webinar she will showcase some truly spectacular Japanese maps taking us on a journey back in time.
