Amusement microscopique tant pour l'esprit, que pour les yeux : contenant cinquante estampes dessinées d'après nature et enluminées, avec leurs explications
Amusement microscopique is a 1764 French-language book of fifty hand-coloured microscopic plates, produced by Martin Frobenius Ledermüller and collaborators and published in Nuremberg for readers interested in natural history and microscopy. Its plates are numbered engravings with lettered keys, showing magnified insects, plant parts, fibres and crystals, with tinted washes that give each specimen a precise scientific look a designer might borrow for botanical or entomological patterns.
