A 1662 astronomy treatise by Johannes Hevelius, with Jeremiah Horrocks, printed at Danzig by Simon Reiniger for the author and aimed at scholars studying transits of Mercury and Venus. Its pictures are letterpress-era woodcut ornaments: a symmetrical cartouche of winged putti, scrolls and fruit swags, and a decorated initial N beside running text, useful to a designer for baroque framing and capital-letter ideas.
