Sexti Placiti papyriensis de Medicamentis ex animalibus Libellus
This is a 1538 Latin pharmacological treatise by Sextus Placitus on medicines derived from animals, edited by Antonio Musa Brasavola and printed in Nuremberg for medical scholars and physicians. The four pictures are copperplate-style engravings of 19th-century medical and surgical apparatus, including syringes, pumps, forceps, and an atomizer, rendered in fine crosshatched line work that a designer could borrow for technical diagrams.
