Les singularitez de la France Antarctique, autrement nommée Amerique: & de plusieurs terre & isles decouuerte de nostre temps.
Les singularitez de la France Antarctique is a 1558 Paris travel account by the French cosmographer André Thevet, printed for the heirs of Maurice de la Porte, describing Brazil and other newly found lands for a European reading public. Its pages carry small woodcut scenes of trees, fruit and Indigenous people at work, with the bold outline and hatched shading typical of mid-sixteenth-century French book engraving, useful to designers seeking simple graphic botanical and figure motifs.
