Salomon de Caus's treatise on hydraulic power, water-driven machines, grottoes and garden fountains, printed by Jan Norton at Frankfurt in 1615 for princely patrons, engineers and garden designers. Alongside plates of pumps, waterwheels, organ mechanisms and cave interiors sit woodcut initial letters filled with hatched foliate scrollwork and berries, usable as drop caps, borders or line-engraved diagram elements.
