  The Discovery of Brazil and the Monte Pascoal
The Monte Pascoal National Park is an Integral Protection Conservation Unit of the Atlantic Rainforest Discovery Coast World Heritage Site and the Mata Atlântica Biosphere Reserve in the state of Bahia.
According to a letter from Pero Vaz de Caminha, one of Pedro Álvares Cabral´s crew members, to the portuguese King D. Manuel I, the Monte Pascoal was the first sign of land that the Portuguese discoverer sighted on April 22nd 1500, before making their first landfall probably close to the mouth of the Caí River.
Today, Monte Pascoal Mountain (549 m) is part of the Monte Pascoal National Park that preserves on an area of 23.000 ha one of the last reserves of Atlantic Rainforest in the south of Bahia.

Monte Pascoal, a peak 586 m high, was the first land sighted when the Portuguese discovered Brazil in 1500.
The Park was dedicated in 1961 at which time it covered 22,500 ha; the Park's area was later reduced to 14,000 ha, with most of the excluded territory given to the local Pataxós Indian tribe (Padua and Coimbra Filho 1989, Soares and Ascoly 1970).
The vegetation of the eastern part of the Park is restinga and mangrove and of the western part, southern Bahian wet forest over laterite.

I don't know if Monte Cervantes' lack of a full row of double-nested lifeboats, as shown in the photo on the site, was a permanent characteristic of the ship or a temporary situation.
After closely examining the photos of the Monte class liners, I believe the ship in my postcard is the Monte Sarmiento.
Her lifeboats look the same as in my postcard, she appears to be about the same length and the superstructure looks identical.
