Galeni omnia quae extant opera : in latinum sermonem conuersa
Galen's collected medical works in Latin translation, printed in Venice in 1565 for physicians and scholars of medicine. Its pictures are small woodcut historiated and foliated initials, letters N, V and C framed by figures, scrolling acanthus leaves and grotesque ornament, showing how decorative capitals were built from vine scrolls, nude figures and cross-hatched backgrounds for print borders and display lettering.
