Le Medecin charitable enseignant la maniere de faire & preparer en la maison...les remedes propres à toutes maladies
A French medical handbook by Philippe Guybert, published in Lyon in 1667, teaching readers how to prepare household remedies for all kinds of illness. The single picture is a small woodcut tailpiece of a flowering plant rising from a woven basket, with bold black outlines and simple hatched shading, suggesting a crude but lively botanical motif a designer could adapt for vintage ornament or herbal-themed decoration.
