Large printer's device on title, metalcut anatomical man, 18 large metalcuts from the Master of the Apocalypse Rose, 36 small metalcuts, full multi-part historiated and ornamental border to each page (a few light stains and fading, small hole in title). 19th-century morocco by Chambolle-Duru, tooled in blind to a Renaissance design, vellum flyleaves, gilt edges (wear at extremities, headcap chipped).
