A 1597 Latin edition printed at Frankfurt by Theodor de Bry, translating Hans Staden's account of Brazil with Jean de Léry's voyage narrative, written for scholars and collectors of travel and natural history. The four pictures here are not scenes but decorative printers' ornaments: a horizontal strapwork band repeated three times and a pendant-shaped corner piece with scrolls and a central mask, all in woodcut.
