Viage da armada da companhia do commercio, e frotas do estado do Brasil.

Freire, Francisco de Brito · 1675 · [Lisbon : Na officina de Joam Galram.] · 2 pictures

A 1675 Portuguese account of voyages by the Brazil company's fleet, printed in Lisbon by Joam Galram and held by the John Carter Brown Library, aimed at readers of maritime and colonial news. The two pictures are woodcut-style ornaments: a symmetrical cartouche with scrolling foliage and a pair of mirrored beasts, and a heraldic coat of arms with a crest, a dotted field, chevrons and a motto scroll, useful for symmetrical border and crest motifs.
