Johann Faulhaber's 1610 Frankfurt treatise on new geometric and perspective instruments, published by Wolfgang Richter for Anthon Hummen, was written for surveyors, military engineers and gunners laying out fortifications, cities and camps. Its pictures are fine line engravings of an instrument on a stand, a seated man at a desk with measuring tools and a globe, and an armorial dedication page, giving a designer clear period models of precise drafting diagrams and ornate baroque title framing.
