Peri tēs chlōrōseōs; seu, De foedis virginum coloribus
This Latin medical dissertation was printed in 1682 at Strasbourg by Johann Friedrich Spoor, with Marc Mapp presiding as praeses, and it treats chlorosis, the green sickness of young women. The single picture is a decorative headpiece of a central urn or bud flanked by two pomegranate-like fruits, with scrolling acanthus leaves and foliage rising above, cut in bold black woodcut style that a designer could borrow for ornamental borders, dividers, or chapter openers.
