The philosophical and physical opinions
A 1655 London book of natural philosophy by Margaret Cavendish, Duchess of Newcastle, printed for J. Martin and J. Allestrye, written for a learned readership interested in science. Its pictures are decorative printed initials and a foliate border in a 17th-century woodcut style, with ornate strapwork, scrolls and foliage a designer could adapt for historical lettering or framing devices.
