File:'De novo mondo et figura noni praecepti'. (Broadsheet, c. 1509–10.).png

English: This broadsheet was printed by the Dutch printer Jan van Doesborch in 1509 or 1510. He had previously published a Dutch edition of Vespucci's 'mundus novus' letter and a Dutch edition of Balthasar Springer's travelogue, and here he or another translator translated into Latin the juiciest passages, like Vespucci's description of the cannibalism of the Tupinambá people of Brazil. The broadsheet has 84 lines of text. These lines are divided into six paragraphs titled 'De novo mondo', 'De Genea', 'De Allago', 'De Arabia', 'Maior India' and 'India seu regnum Gutschi'. The first illustration in the top left corner of the broadsheet depicts a feather-skirted couple in feather headdresses beside a head being roasted over a fire. This illustration illustrates Vespucci's verbal description, and Doesborch may have modeled it upon the manner of depiction of the well-known 'New World Scene' broadsheet published by Hans Froschauer in Augsburg in 1504 or 1505. The six other illustrations are modeled on those of Wolf Traut, that appear in Springer's 'Die merfart' (1509). They are all related to the illustrations in Hans Burgkmair's frieze 'People of Africa and India' (1508). The legends in the illustrations read: "Gennea" [Guinea]; "In-Allago" [Algoa Bay]; "In:Arabia"; "Major:India". In each illustration a small family of figures is shown, couples with children. The illustration in the bottom left corner shows two warriors, with shield and bow. The largest illustration, in the bottom right corner of the broadsheet, depicts the King of Cochin, carried in procession upon a litter by his subjects.
