Methodique introduction à la chirurgie
Methodique introduction a la chirurgie is a 1626 surgical handbook in French by Jacques de Marque, a Paris barber-surgeon, printed in Paris by Eustache Daubin for practising surgeons and barbers. The picture is only the title page, set in centred roman and italic type with a printer's imprint and a large round library stamp and a blind-stamped seal. A designer might take its dense, symmetrical typographic hierarchy and the aged, stamped paper texture as a model for historical title pages.
