A 1628 Frankfurt edition, printed by Erasmus Kempffer for Wilhelm Fitzer, of the second part of Jan Huygen van Linschoten's account of Portuguese and Indian life and trade in the East Indies, with engravings by the De Bry family. Its pictures show native peoples, dress and landscapes of the region, arranged as numbered figure plates beside the text and a coastal map. A designer might take from them the crowded engraved figure groups, the hatched outdoor ground and the heavy black-line lettering of the period.
