Les principes de la chirurgie, reduits par tables, avec leurs explications en faveur des aspirans audit art
A 1673 French surgical handbook printed in Paris at the author's expense by Estienne Desforges, intended as a set of reduced tables for surgery students. Its pictures are small woodcut vignettes of fruit baskets and compotiers, with bold black outlines, dense hatching and flat cut-out foliage, which suggest simple, graphic ornament for a designer working on a historical emblem or label.
