A volume in Désiré Nisard's French series of Latin authors in translation, published by Firmin Didot in Paris in 1866, gathering the complete Celsus, Vitruvius and Censorinus with Frontinus on the aqueducts of Rome for scholars and students. The wood-engraved figures reconstruct ancient orthopaedic benches and traction frames with lettered keys and scale bars, show hands gripping surgical instruments in close hatched detail, and set out a zodiac circle ruled with aspect triangles and squares.
