Le bon usage du thé, du caffé et du chocolat pour la preservation & pour la guerison des maladies.
A 1687 French medical treatise by Nicolas de Blégny, printed at Lyon by Thomas Amaulry, on drinking tea, coffee and chocolate for health and to cure illness. Its pictures are small black-and-white copperplate-style engravings: a branch of coffee plant with berries, a footed tiered serving stand, and a tray of cups and saucers, useful to a designer for period botanical and tableware motifs.
