Tuccaro, Arcangelo · 1616 · Tours, G. Griveau · 9 pictures

Trois dialogues by Arcangelo Tuccaro, printed at Tours by G. Griveau in 1616, is a French-language medical treatise on physical exercise and gymnastics for a learned readership. Its woodcut plates show a man performing exercise poses in full figure, some on a sloped board or a low stool, with plain outline and hatched shading that a designer could use as a study of posture, balance and body movement.
