Caption of illustration: "A woman of Lima in full dress, a D[itto] behind her in undress, a Spaniard dresst as they are in Peru, and a Mulatto and Negro servant"; the clothing worn by these people is described on pp. 409-411. The illustrations were constructed for this volume and are not based on eye-witness drawings; author's account was derived from various sources, including Ulloa, Canamine.
