Traicté pour la conservation de la santé et sur la saignee de ce temps, ...troisième édition...
A French medical treatise on preserving health and on bloodletting, written by David Laigneau and printed in Paris by Mathurin Henault in 1650 for a general readership. Its small woodcuts show baskets and vases of flowers, rendered in bold black outline with hatched shading, a compact vocabulary a designer could borrow for botanical or decorative motifs.
