A 1627 German account by Johann Georg Aldenburgk of the Dutch West India Company's 1623 to 1626 siege and conquest of São Salvador in Bahia, Brazil, printed at Coburg for a German reading public. The single picture is a heraldic coat of arms with a helmet, crest, and motto scroll reading GAUDEO, engraved in plain line work with a stippled field. A designer could take its symmetrical cartouche of scrolls and acanthus leaves and its stippled shield pattern as a model for crests and emblem frames.
