Rvdimenta mathematica : haec in duos digeruntur libros, quorum prior geometriae tradit principia seu prima elementa, unà cum rerum & uariarum figurarũ dimensionibus : posterior uerò omnigenum horologiorum docet delineationes
Rudimenta mathematica is a 1551 Latin treatise on geometry and horology by Sebastian Münster, printed in Basel by Henricus Petri for scholars and instrument makers. Its pictures are precise black-and-white woodcut diagrams of arcs, scales, and sundials, showing how measured curves and angled dials are constructed, which a designer could draw on for technical line-based graphics.
