L'anatomie françoise, recveillie des meillevrs autheurs qui ont écrit de cette science

Gelée, Théophile, d. 1650 · 1673 · Lyon, E. Baritel · 6 pictures

A 1673 anatomy textbook printed in Lyon by E. Baritel, compiled in French from earlier authors by Théophile Gelée, d. 1650, for students and practitioners of medicine. Its ornaments are woodcut headpieces and tailpieces: a leafy scrolled border, a symmetrical strapwork cartouche with fleur-de-lis-like finials, and a vase of flowers, all in dense black line that a designer could borrow for botanical or ornamental framing.
