Jerome Cardan : a biographical study.
A 1898 London biographical study of the physician and mathematician Jerome Cardan by William George Waters, with bookplate and frontispiece-style illustrations, likely written for scholars and readers of medical history. The pictures range from a heraldic Royal College of Physicians bookplate and an oval portrait of Cardan in profile to an ex libris with ivy-framed bookshelves and a decorative initial showing a woman with two oxen, offering designers examples of oval portrait framing, Renaissance-style heraldic bookplates, and ornate woodcut-style initials.
