Casp. Bartholini Malmogij Dani Problematvm philosophicorvm & medicorvm nobiliorum & rariorum miscell. exercitationes ad disputandum in illustri Albiacâ propositae
A 1611 Latin disputation collection on philosophy and medicine by the Danish scholar Caspar Bartholin, printed in Germany for students debating at a university. The pictures are small woodcut printer's ornaments repeated as decorative tailpieces, each a symmetrical cartouche with a central grotesque mask, curling scrolls, a flame-topped urn and a beaded border, a motif a designer could adapt for heraldic or antique-style emblems.
