Summary
| Description"America" (Engraving) Nova reperta (Speculum diuersarum imaginum speculatiuarum 1638).tif | English: "Americae Retectio", circa 1615 ("Allegory of America" engraving by Jan Galle after Jan van der Straet). The scene depicts Amerigo Vespucci representing the Old World explorers as he wakes up a Native American from her hammock slumber. Local flora and fauna dot the background, as well as natives having a cannibalistic roast. Johannes Stradanus or van der Straat, (1523-1605) was a Flemish artist but spent much of his life in Florence. Stradanus sent his original drawings of "Nova Reperta" ("New Inventions"), a Renaissance celebration of recent discoveries both scientific and geographical, to Antwerp where they were first engraved and published by Phillipe Galle circa 1600.
