Here are some still images to follow yesterday’s video of us opening our newest rare book. The bottom image is a folded engraving of Calzolari’s museum or cabinet of curiosity, which he used as a learning tool for local physicians, pharmacists and botanists to observe and experiment with objects first hand.
The book is Musaeum Calceolarianum Veronense, by Benedetto Ceruti and Andrea Chiocco, printed in 1622.
