Abrégé des transactions philosophiques de la Société Royale de Londres
An abridged edition of the Royal Society of London's Philosophical Transactions, published in 1790 and issued by the Society for a scholarly readership, held by Heidelberg University Library. The four pictures are small black-and-white floral vignettes, likely tailpieces or ornaments set in the text, with roses, buds and sprigs drawn in loose woodcut-style line that a designer could borrow for botanical or vintage decorative motifs.
