Novus ductus chyliferus. Nunc primum delineatus, descriptus et eruditorum examini expositus ...
A 1652 Latin anatomical treatise by Johannes van Horne, printed at Leiden by Francis Hack and held by the Wellcome Library, on the chyliferous ducts of the body for scholarly readers. The four pictures are woodcut decorative initials and headpieces, with the large letters O and S framed by scrolling foliage, strapwork, and grotesque masks, showing how early modern printers built ornament from curls, dots, and urns that a designer could adapt for display lettering.
