Practicae medicinae liber primus [-secundus]

Sennert, Daniel, 1572-1637 · 1654 · [Wittebergae] : Impensis Haeredum Doct. Tobiae Mevii et Elerti Schuemacheri · 19 pictures

A 1654 medical treatise by Daniel Sennert, printed at Wittenberg for the heirs of Tobias Mevius and Elert Schumacher, aimed at physicians and students of medicine. Its pictures are small printer's ornaments: a pendant strapwork cluster with scrolls and a lower finial, a heart-shaped cartouche with a masked head, and a block-letter C framed by foliate scrolls, useful for designers wanting early modern decorative borders and initial letters.
