Mvsevm Richterianvm: continens fossilia animalia vegetabilia mar.
A 1743 Latin catalogue of fossils, animals, plants and marine specimens, compiled by Johann Ernst Hebenstreit, Johann Christoph Richter and Johann Friedrich Christ, held by Heidelberg University Library and written for scholars and collectors of natural curiosities. Its pictures are engraved ornamental headpieces and tailpieces in a dense Baroque and Rococo style, with scrolling acanthus, foliage swags and symmetrical cartouches that a designer could adapt for borders, frames or vignette decoration.
