Friedrich Eduard Bilz, Royal College of Physicians, London · 1895 · Leipzig : F. E. Bilz, [1895] · 168 pictures

Italian edition of F. E. Bilz's naturopathy manual, published by the author in Leipzig in 1895 as a home handbook of natural cures for lay readers. The wood-engraved figures show nude and half-dressed patients demonstrating massage strokes, bandaging and compresses, with arrows and numbered keys marking direction of pressure, plus botanical and fungus plates; useful for line-drawn anatomical gesture, hatched shading and numbered diagram conventions.
