notes:
The native American or aboriginal people shown here may be Alakaluf or Yamana or Yaghanes. This expedition was probably the first European contact for those peoples.Prince Maurice of Nassau ordered the voyage, commanded by Admiral Jacob L'Hermite (or Jacques L'Hermite), as an expedition against Spain. The fleet circumnavigated the globe.This plate was added to the John Carter Brown Library copy to substitute for the missing one and has been accessioned separately.Book is attributed to Jacques l'Hermite, Joannes van Walbeeck, and Adolf Decker. Joannes (or Johan) van Walbeeck (or Walbeek) was the mathematician of the fleet. Gerritsz was Verschoor's secretary, and Decker was captain of marines during the expedition.The same image appears in Iournalen van drie voyagien... published in Amsterdam, 1643.
