De motv natvrali; gravivm solidorvm et liqvidorvm
A 1646 Latin physics treatise on natural motion of heavy solid and liquid bodies by Giovanni Battista Baliani, printed in Geneva by Farroni for a scholarly readership. Its pictures are ornamental woodcut headpieces and tailpieces with scrolls, acanthus-like foliage, and symmetrical cartouches, useful to a designer looking for early modern decorative borders and ornament frames.
