Question chirurgicale par laquelle il est démontré que le chirurgien doit assurement pratiquer l'operation de la bronchotomie,...
A 1620 French surgical treatise by Nicolas Habicot, printed in Paris by Jean Corrozet, arguing that surgeons should perform bronchotomy, a throat-opening operation, and written for medical readers. The pictures are black-and-white letterpress pages with large decorative woodcut initials of foliage and a single engraved anatomical plate of a head and neck with lettered labels, offering designers ornate capital letters and the stark linework of early medical diagrams.
