A 1619 Paris edition of Willem Schouten's account of his voyage through a new strait and across southern seas toward the Antarctic, printed for a French readership by Gobert and Tavernier and held by the John Carter Brown Library. The picture is a printed coat of arms with a shield, crest, scrolling mantling and a motto banner, labelled with the name John Carter Brown, which is an ownership or bookplate mark rather than an illustration from the voyage. A designer could take its engraved scrollwork, heraldic framing and tidy plate lettering as a model for ornamental crests and emblems.
