A 1623 Latin pharmacy and medicine treatise by the Paris physician Jean de Renou, printed in Paris for the Jesuit press of the Societas Minima and aimed at physicians and apothecaries. Its pictures are small woodcut decorative initials, a large C and two V letters, framed by scrolling acanthus leaves, curling tendrils, and a grotesque face, with a standing figure and an animal in the V; a designer might borrow their baroque letterforms and framing ornament for a historical headpiece or drop cap.
