Des Vaters Josephs Torrubia ... Vorbereitung zur Naturgeschichte von Spanien : mit vierzehn Kupfertafeln versehen, welche viele Fossilien vorstellen, die in den spanischen Ländern verschiedener Welttheile gefunden werden
Published in Halle in 1773, this German natural history work by Christoph Gottlieb von Murr presents José Torrubia's preparatory survey of Spanish fossils, intended for German-speaking readers of natural history. Its pictures are copperplate engravings on numbered plates (Tab. V, VI, VIII, IX) showing shells and fossil bivalves in fine parallel hatching, with ornamental rococo scroll borders that a designer could adapt for decorative frames and vignettes.
