Exercitatio anatomica de motv cordis et sangvinis in animalibvs
William Harvey's 1628 Latin treatise on the heart and blood circulation, printed in Frankfurt at Fitzer's expense for an audience of physicians and anatomists. Its pictures are copper-engraved anatomical plates of arms with tied-off veins and pointing hands, plus a title page with a robed figure in an oval cartouche; a designer might draw on the precise line hatching and the formal, diagrammatic clarity of early scientific print.
