A 1602 German-Latin account of Olivier van Noort's circumnavigation through the Strait of Magellan, edited by Theodor de Bry and printed for a scholarly and merchant readership, with engraved views of ships, coasts and islands. The pictures are small black-and-white engravings with dense hatching, showing ships at sea, shoreline profiles and figures in the foreground, offering a designer a model for compact maritime scene composition and cartographic detail.
