Museum Wormianum; seu, Historia rerum rariorum, tam naturalium, quam artificialium, tam domesticarum, quam exoticarum, quae Hafniae Danorum in a aedibus authoris servantur
A 1655 Latin catalogue of curiosities by Ole Worm, printed at Leiden by the Elzevier press, describing the rarities kept in his Copenhagen house for a learned audience of natural historians. The four woodcuts show single objects drawn in fine engraved hatching, such as oval nuts, a cup-like shell and a lobed root, giving a designer examples of early scientific object illustration with dense cross-hatching for form and shadow.
