Contains beautiful panoramas of Batavia, Soerabaja, Samarang and Soerakarta. The print of the frigate contains 16 hand-coloured flags with explanations and a letter print legenda with 100 ship details. The separately inserted extra print shows a man in a rowing boat like the one the author brought from Philadelphia to Amsterdam. Wikipedia has a short article about the author who is known under the nicknames of Kees de Tippelaar and De Wandelende Hollander (the Walking Dutchman).
