Th. Bartholini De peregrinatione medica : ad cl. v. Oligerum Jacobaeum nepotem suum et filios Casparum Bartholinum, Christoph. Bartholinum

Bartholin, Thomas, 1616-1680 · 1674 · Hafniae : Sumpt. Danielis Paulli, reg. bibliopolae. Literis Christiani Weringii Acad. typogr · 2 pictures

A Latin medical treatise by Thomas Bartholin, printed in Copenhagen in 1674 by Daniel Paulli's press and dedicated to his nephew and sons, a scholarly text for physicians and students. The pictures are a large decorated woodcut initial S with foliate scrollwork in a dense black-on-paper style, and a British Museum library stamp from 1787 that is a catalogue mark rather than part of the book, so a designer might borrow the interlaced acanthus-like border and the bold initial letter.
