Attractive view of an Indian village near Goa, with bathing women, a well, and several animals. Text in Latin and Dutch along lower edge. Linschoten lived and wrote at a time when exploration was rapidly opening up the world. His travel writings, in three parts, the famous ‘Itinerarium’, included ‘Description de l’Amerique’, ‘Le Grande Route de Mer’ and ‘Histoire de la Navigation’, and were published individually and together in many editions from 1595 onwards.
