Traicté de la peste divise en diagnostic, pronostic et curation avec des observations notables
A 1620 French treatise on plague, written by the surgeon Emmanuel Labadie and printed at Toulouse by Dominique and Pierre Bosc for physicians and surgeons dealing with epidemics. The pictures are a stamped oval library mark over an ornamental initial, a dense page of small black-letter French type, and a title page with a framed vignette of a reclining figure beside a dog and a vessel, which a designer might take as a model for period typography and emblematic woodcut framing.
