Liber der arte distulandi simplicia et composita is a 1509 German distilling and pharmacy manual by Hieronymus Brunschwig, printed in Strasbourg by Johann Grüninger for apothecaries and practitioners of distillation. The pictures are small woodcut plant drawings and bordered text blocks in black-letter type, with stems, leaves, and roots drawn in bold outline that a designer could adapt for botanical borders or vintage herbal motifs.
