Traicté de la peste…faict par le College des maistres chirurgiens jurez de Paris,
A plague treatise in French, issued in Paris in 1619 by Francois Jacquin and compiled by the college of master surgeons sworn in Paris for physicians and the public. The pictures are small printed decorations: a large historiated initial M with foliage and a face, a historiated initial D with grotesque masks, and a printer's device of a grotesque mask in a cartouche beside an oval portrait medallion of a bearded man in profile, useful for designers seeking early modern letterforms and ornament.
