Fortunii Liceti Genuensis... De mundi & hominis analogia

Liceti, Fortunio · 1635 · ex typographia Nicolai Schiratti · 4 pictures

A Latin scholarly treatise by Fortunio Liceti, printed in 1635 by the Nicolai Schiratti press, apparently for learned readers in the Renaissance-era scholarly tradition; the copy belonged to C.G. Jung. The four pictures are woodcut decorative initials, a foliate headpiece with putti and a grotesque mask, and a printer's device of two figures fighting beneath a ribbon motto, all small and crisp in black-and-white, offering designers ready models for ornamental capitals, borders and printer's marks.
