Le medecin charitable abbregé pour guerir toutes sortes de maladies avec peu de remedes...seconde edition
Le medecin charitable is a 1668 French medical handbook by Lazare Meyssonnier, printed at Lyon by M. Gautherin for lay readers treating common illnesses with simple remedies. The picture is a small woodcut tailpiece of a flowering plant rising from a basket-weave pot with curled handles, a compact ornament a designer could adapt for vintage botanical or seventeenth-century printed-page motifs.
