The cannibal spaniards: analysis of the engravings of the seventh volume of Theodore de Bry's Grands Voyages

The article analyses the images done by Theodore de Bry and their descendants for the Grand Voyages, collection of reports about the New World published between the 16th and the 17th Centuries. From the seventh volume, dedicated to the Viaje al Río de la Plata, from the bavarian soldier Ulrico Schmidl, we seek to analyze the representations of the Indians and of the Spaniards that were presented in the images done by the protestant editor.
