Isaaci Vossi De motu marium et ventorum. Liber
A Latin treatise on the motion of seas and winds by Isaac Vossius, printed at The Hague in 1663 by Adriaan Vlacq for scholars of natural philosophy. Its pictures are small geometric diagrams of lines, angles and a pendulum-like apparatus with lettered points, showing how the author reasoned through physical models; a designer might take from them the spare look of early scientific figures with labeled capitals.
