Scriboni Largi Compositiones Medicae. Johannes Rhodius recensuit, Notis illustravit, Lexicon scribonianum adjecit.
A 1655 Latin medical treatise, Scribonius Largus's Compositiones Medicae, edited by Johannes Rhodius and printed in Padua by Paulus Frambottus for scholars and physicians. Its pictures are plain, dense letterpress pages of Latin text with running headers, marginal numerals and small section headings, with no illustrations visible in these examples, so a designer might borrow the rhythm of close-set roman type, ruled margins and the aged paper tone.
