    The second St. Helena plate from Linschoten's Itinerario features three rugged coastal profiles of, from top to bottom, the east, north, and west sides of the South Atlantic island, which was an important resupply point for early Portuguese fleets and the site of Napoleon's final exile. Surrounding the island views are decorative windroses and ships at sea, two magnificent strapwork cartouches (title and dedicatory), and in the upper left corner, an angel holding an armillary sphere.
