A 1622 Dutch compilation published in Amsterdam by Michiel Colijn, gathering Spanish and Dutch voyage accounts of the Americas and the Pacific, aimed at merchants and armchair readers of the period. Its pictures are engraved maps of Central America, the Caribbean islands and the Pacific coast, drawn with dense place names, hatched coastlines, and decorative cartouches on aged paper tones, giving a designer a model for antique cartographic lettering and sea-chart linework.
