Novus Orbis, sive, Descriptio Indiae Occidentalis is a 1622 Latin atlas of the West Indies published in Amsterdam by Michael Colin, drawing on Antonio de Herrera y Tordesillas and the voyages of Jacques Le Maire and Caspar van Baerle. Its pictures are engraved maps of coastlines, rivers and harbours, with place names in tight italic script, shown as dense linework and fine hatching a designer could use for cartographic textures and antique navigational motifs.
