Departure of a Tourist		Frontispiece
	(British Museum MS. Egerton 1222, fol. 44.)
A Pilgrimage Scene		18
	From a woodcut by Michael Ostendorfer (1519–1559) or perhaps by his master, Albrecht Altdorfer. Both lived at Regensburg, where the scene of this picture is laid, this shrine of Our Lady of Regensburg being a regular pilgrimage centre (British Museum).
The Cheapest Way		22
	"Les Bohémiens" (no. 1) by Jacques Callot (1594–1635). The artist ran away from home to Italy when a youngster and fell in with company of this kind on the road. The second state (1633; British Museum) has been reproduced in preference to the first as being in no way inferior and having the advantage of the verses appended to them by another traveller of the time, the Abbé de Marolles.
A Typical Town-Plan		52
	Map of Venice, illustrating especially the disregard of scale. From H. de Beauveau's "Relation journalière," 1615.
A Typical Map		54
	Part of Flanders, from Matthew Quadt's "Geographisch Handtbuch," 1600. Illustrates the approximateness of detail and the absence of roads, especially as contrasted with the indications of waterways. But it must be noted that cartography made as great advances during the period here dealt with as surgery during the nineteenth century.
A Channel Passage-Boat		64
	From Münster's "Cosmographie," 1575 (ii. 865—part of the map of Germany).
Ship for a Long-Distance Voyage		72
	Dutch vessel, showing the open cabins at the stern in which Moryson preferred to sleep. From J. Fürtenbach's "Architectura Navalis," 1629.
Lock between Bologna and Ferrara		82
	From J. Fürtenbach's "Newes Itinerarium Italiæ," 1627. There were nine of these in thirty-five miles. Fürtenbach's sketch shows an oval basin as seen from above, with lock-gates at the down-stream end only. He gives Скачать книгу 1 2 3 4 5 > В конец Librs.Net
