Histoire naturelle et morale des iles Antilles de l'Amerique : enrichie de plusieurs belles figures des raretez les plus considerables qui y sont d'écrites : avec un vocabulaire caraibe
Rochefort's 1658 natural and moral history of the Antilles, published in Rotterdam by Arnout Leers, documents Caribbean flora and Carib life for a European readership. Its pictures are small black-and-white engravings of single trees and branches set against blank paper, with clean line hatching and little ground detail, offering a designer a compact vocabulary of botanical silhouettes and specimen framing.
