Peregrinacion del mundo

Cubero Sebastián, Pedro, 1645-approximately 1697 · 1682 · En Napoles : Por Carlos Porsile · 6 pictures

Peregrinacion del mundo is a 1682 Spanish-language travel narrative by the missionary Pedro Cubero Sebastián, printed in Naples by Carlos Porsile for readers of Spanish. Its pictures are engraved frontispieces and bookplates: a sunlit globe framed by allegorical figures and a coat of arms, a crowned portrait medallion with cherubs and sea horses, and a heraldic plate with flanking angels. A designer might take from them the dense, ornate Baroque engraving style, with crowded figures, scrolled cartouches and fine hatched shading.
