Description
Large view of St. Francisco de Campeche in the Yucatan with numerous warships fighting in the foreground and firing on the fort. Title ribbon in the sky.
This print is taken from Ogilby\'s An Accurate Description and Complete History of America based on De Nieuwe en Onbekende Wereld by Arnold Montanus. The plates were prepared by Jacob Van Meurs of Amsterdam. Ogilby somehow obtained the plates for both the maps and the views and used them for his America without credit to either Montanus or Meurs.
