Claudii Galeni Pergameni opuscula aliquot quorum sequentis paginae index te admonebit
A 1546 Paris edition of short medical treatises by the Greek physician Galen, printed by Simon de Colines for scholars and physicians reading in Latin. The pictures are a large decorated initial P and Q beside dense black-letter Latin columns, and a winged figure in a woodcut with text unfurling in ribbons; a designer might borrow the ornamented capital letters and the scroll-like banners as framing devices.
