Médecine de l'esprit : où l'on cherche 1o., le méchanisme du corps qui influe sur les fonctions de l'ame : 2o., les causes physiques qui rendent ce méchanisme ou défectueux, ou plus parfait : 3o., les moyens qui peuvent l'entretenir dans son état libre, & le rectifier lorqu'il est gêné
Médecine de l'esprit is a 1769 medical treatise by Antoine Le Camus, published in Paris by Ganeau, on how the body's mechanism shapes the mind and how to keep both healthy. The four pictures are ornamental headpieces and tailpieces of 18th-century French typographic decoration: a framed landscape with a castle, symmetrical scrollwork with urn finials, a repeating dotted lattice panel, and a fruit basket on a curled stand. A designer could draw on their framing devices, symmetry and balanced scrollwork for borders and title layouts.
