Miscellanea curiosa medico-physica Academiæ Naturæ curiosorum, sive, Ephemeridum medico-physicarum Germanicarum curiosarum. · 1671 · [Jena] · 9 pictures

A 1671 Latin medical and natural-science miscellany issued by the German scientific society Academia Naturae Curiosorum, printed at Jena for physicians and naturalists. Its copperplate-style engravings show plants, fungal growths and specimens, each numbered as a case observation, with plain outline drawing and dense hatching. A designer could take from them the precise botanical line work and the early scientific habit of labelled, numbered figures on aged paper.
