In this paper I will present some aspects of my current research on an intriguing set of early modern natural historical images: the woodcut illustrations featured in the treatise Historia naturae, maxime peregrinae by the Spanish Jesuit scholar Juan Eusebio Nieremberg, published in Antwerp in 1635. In particular, I will explore the “visual itineraries” created by some of these images as they were appropriated by other scholars and artists and began to circulate via different media.
