What Wikipedia says

Theodore de Bry (also Theodorus de Bry; 1527/28 – 27 March 1598) was a Walloon engraver, goldsmith, editor and publisher, famous for his depictions of early European expeditions to the Americas. The Catholic authorities forced de Bry, a Protestant, to flee his native, Spanish-controlled Southern Netherlands.
