About this work
An engraved print by Jan Collaert the Elder shows a standing man raising an astrolabe toward a night sky marked by the Southern Cross, while sailors sleep nearby beside a ship and a table of instruments and books. A framed portrait medallion of Dante with Latin and Italian verses appears on the left, and the caption below names Americus Vespucius. The work is catalogued as a print with no date given.
