A 1555 French medical and alchemical treatise printed at Lyon by B. Arnoullet and attributed to Conrad Gesner, aimed at physicians, surgeons and apothecaries for distilling liquids and preparing wines. The pages are dense black-letter text set in justified columns, with an ornamental historiated initial letter opening the text and a small woodcut of a distillation furnace with a retort and receiver beside the text, a useful reference for lettering blocks and compact text-and-figure layouts.
