A very attractive miniature double hemisphere world appears beneath the head and shoulders portrait of Olivier van Noort, the first Dutch circumnavigator. Also shown is his ship and, at either side, full length images of American Indians. The plate appeared on the titlepage of Part XI of De Bry's Grands Voyages, an important compendium of the most recent accounts from the New World and the Far East.
