De Mutatione aeris - De Medicorum astrologia

Firmin de Beauval (13..-13..), Imbrasius Ephesius · Ratdolt, Erhard (1447-1528) (Venise) · 6 pictures

This Venetian incunable printed by Erhard Ratdolt, a Latin astrological and medical text on weather and the air attributed to Imbrasius and translated by Petrus de Abano, was produced for scholars and physicians. Its pages show large decorated initials with interlaced foliage and figures, set beside dense black-letter text in two columns, offering designers a model for ornamental capitals and early printed page layout.
