De Vita Et Morte Libellus. In quo primum ex Aristotelis sententiae vitae, mortisque causae disquiruntur. Postea vero quaestionibus, et propositionibus aliquot accuratius, et magis exquisitè quid vita, morsque sint exponitur à Nicolao Taurello
A Latin philosophical treatise on life and death by Nicolaus Taurellus, printed in Nuremberg in 1586 at the Catharina Gerlach press for scholars and university readers. The picture is a small printer's device of a naked figure in an oval roundel beside floral ornament, set under a printed privilege line and a circular ownership stamp. For designers it offers a compact woodcut-style emblem with a classical allegorical figure and a dense typographic title block.
