Aus der ersten Abhandlung von der Geographia Subterranea
A German treatise on subterranean geography by Johann Taddäus Anton Peithner von Lichtenfels, printed by Clauser in 1770 and drawn from an iron-industry library collection, apparently aimed at mining scholars and engineers. Its pictures are small black-and-white woodcut-style ornaments, rococo cartouches and vignettes, plus one scene of a miner in a rocky landscape beside a mine entrance, which suggests a designer could borrow the decorative headpieces and the scenic mining motif.
