Synopsis: A beautiful post-incunabula from Seville in Gothic script with elaborated woodcut initial letters, tables and diagrams and a title page typical of the printing works of the eldest of the Crombergers. This book is reminiscent of the fine work of Meinard Ungut (a prototypographer working in Granada with Juan Pegnitzer) and Estanislaus Polonus (the prototypographer of Alcalá de Henares), whose xylographical woodcuts were worked and used by Jacob Cromberger. The book is dedicated to Prince Charles, the future emperor to be. The fine detail of the title is an indication of the richness of this work, making further praise redundant and unnecessary.
