Former Owner: Pillone Library
Nearly 100 years after Columbus’s first descriptions of what came to be known as the North American continent, Theodor De Bry followed by publishing a series of volumes that described more recent European explorations. The binding on this copy contains depictions of Indigenous Americans, drawn by Cesare Vecellio for the Pillone Library, an important 16th century collection. Volumes from this library can now be found in libraries and collections around the world.
