Praxis historiarum, in qua morborum omnium internorum curatio ad principum medicorum mentem explicatur…
A 1643 Latin medical treatise by Abraham Zacutus, printed in Lyon by J. A. Huguetan, setting out the internal diseases and their treatment for physicians. The pictures are dense letterpress pages, a printed index of diseases in two columns with mixed type sizes, and a woodcut ornamental cartouche with a grotesque mask, scrolls and flowers, which a designer could use for dense typographic texture, historical page layouts, or decorative framing devices.
