J. van Houten and I. van Houten-Groeneveld on Palomar Schmidt plates taken by T. Gehrels. Jan Huygen van Linschoten (1563-1611) lived in Asia from 1583 until 1588. After his return he wrote the first Dutch standard work about Asia, Itinerario (1596). It is a manual for sailors, as well as a trading guide and a treatise about countries and their people.
