La physique d'uzage...discours sur la medecine p. Arberius...
A 1664 French medical treatise, printed in Paris by Pierre Aubouin and Philippe d'Arbisse for a learned readership of physicians and students. The one picture is a title-page ornament: a flourished cartouche with a central grotesque mask, set above the printer's imprint, with a library stamp and handwritten flourish in the margin. A designer might take its symmetrical scrollwork and mask motif as a model for baroque ornamental borders and vignettes.
