Dissertatio inauguralis medica de opiatorum nova eaque mechanica operandi ratione ...
A Latin medical dissertation on opiates by Jacques Descazals, printed in Halle in 1700 for an academic audience of physicians and students. Its pictures are small woodcut ornaments: a foliage border framing a palm tree in a roundel, and a historiated initial N showing a rocky landscape with a tree and figure, set beside Roman-type text, useful to a designer seeking decorative capitals and botanical border motifs.
