Frederici Ruyschii ... Observationum anatomico-chirurgicarum centuria : accedit catalogus rariorum, quae in museo Ruyschiano asservantur ...
A Latin anatomical and surgical observations collection by Frederik Ruysch, published in Amsterdam in 1691 by the Boom firm, aimed at physicians and anatomists and paired with a catalogue of rarities from Ruysch's own anatomical museum. Its plates are numbered engravings of organs, vessels and dissected specimens, labelled with letters keyed to the captions. A designer might take from them the precise, diagrammatic style of early scientific engraving: fine hatching for volume, lettered callouts, and sparse plain paper tones.
