Nicolai Stenonis de Musculis et glandulis observationum specimen, cum epistolis duabus anatomicis

Steensen, Niels / Sténon, Nicolas · 1664 · Hafniae : lit. M. Godicchenii · 4 pictures

A 1664 Latin anatomy treatise by Niels Steensen, printed in Copenhagen (Hafniae) and held by a Paris university health library, written for fellow physicians and anatomists studying muscles and glands. Its pictures are seventeenth-century woodcut and engraved decoration: a fruit-and-foliage ornament, a title page framed by flowers and small anatomical roundels, and a decorated initial letter, all useful to designers for period botanical borders and lettering.

Steensen, Niels / Sténon, Nicolas (1638-1686)
