Camerarius, Elias Rudolph, 1641-1695 · 1683 · Tubingae : Typis Johann-Henrici Reisii · 2 pictures

A Latin medical treatise on the kidneys and bladder by Elias Rudolph Camerarius, printed at Tübingen in 1683 for physicians and anatomists. Its pictures are small printer's ornaments: a richly hatched decorative initial letter with scrolling foliage, and a central emblem of a winged head flanked by garlands, swags and tassels, useful to a designer for border and initial-cap ideas.
