Isaaci Newtoni ... Lectiones opticae, annis MDCLXIX, MDCLXX & MDCLXXI in scholis publicis habitae: et nunc primum ... in lucem editae
Isaac Newton's Lectiones opticae, lectures on optics given at Cambridge in 1669 to 1671 and published posthumously in London in 1729 by William Innys for a scholarly readership. The pictures are small printed ornaments: a symmetrical cartouche of winged cherubs and foliage around an oval landscape, a woodcut-style garden vignette with a seated figure among ruins, and a decorative initial H with scrolled corners, all in dense black ink that a designer could borrow for borders and framing devices.
