A 1746 German alchemical treatise by Bernardus Trevisanus, edited by Joachim Tancke and published by Johann Paul Krauss, aimed at readers of chemical philosophy. The pictures are small woodcut decorations: a vase with scrolling acanthus, a leafy cartouche with a dog on a plinth, and a framed emblematic panel of figures and a serpent, suggesting ornament built from symmetrical scrolls, foliage, and framed narrative vignettes.
