Disputationem medicam ... de sterilitate utriusque sexus ... MDCLXXII

Ussleber, Johann, active 1669-1672 · 1672 · Altdorffii : Ex officina Johannis Henrici Schönnerstaedt · 2 pictures

A 1672 Latin medical dissertation on sterility, printed at Altdorf by Johann Henrich Schönnerstaedt and written by Johann Ussleber, aimed at physicians and students of medicine. Its two pictures are a dense printed ornamental headpiece of scrolling foliage around a fruit-filled urn-like vessel, and a large decorated initial letter opening a page of dense Latin text, both useful for designers seeking early modern type-led ornament and decorative capitals.
