Des Hn. Bernhardi Grafen von der Marck und Tervis Chymische Schrifften : von dem gebenedeyten Stein der Weisen
A German edition of the alchemical writings attributed to Bernard of Trevisan on the philosophers' stone, edited with commentary by Joachim Tancke, Caspar Horn and Albertus Beyer, printed in Nuremberg by Johann Paul Krauss in 1747 for readers of chymical literature. The plates here are typographic ornament: heavy blackletter initials with pen-style flourishes, acanthus headpieces, and small tailpieces built from urns, scrolls and hatched fans.
