Acta eruditorum. 1689
Acta eruditorum is a 1689 Leipzig periodical of learned scholarship, published by J. Grossius and J.F. Gletitschius for the European scholarly public. Its plates are geometric diagrams of conic sections, with lettered figures of circles, parabolas, hyperbolas and ellipses drawn in fine black line on aged paper, offering a designer clean technical linework, precise lettering layouts and the look of early scientific print.
