Kessler, Franz · 1611 · bey Wolffgang Richtern · 8 pictures

A 1611 German treatise on sundial construction by Franz Kessler, printed by Wolffgang Richter, for craftsmen and instrument makers who needed exact methods for laying out line-based sundials. The pictures are geometric construction diagrams: sheets of radiating lines, meridian and horizon axes, labelled letters and numerals, and arcs drawn in fine black line on aged paper, offering a designer a clear model of precise radial layout and technical diagramming.
