Nouus orbis regionum ac insularum ueteribus incognitarum,
A 1532 Basel travel compilation by Johann Huttich and Simon Grynaeus, Nouus orbis, gathering accounts of newly known lands and islands for a learned Latin readership. The first picture is a historiated initial I with the caption HERCVLES above scenes of seated figures in a dense woodcut hatching, and the second is a Hermes-style bust with two faces on a fluted, foliage-wrapped pedestal, set in a clean print frame that suggests strong black-and-white contrast and decorative capital design.
