		Tacuinum Sanitatis: An Early Renaissance Guide to Health
		This book is a complete catalogue and commentary on a remarkable series of 130 coloured drawings executed in North Italy, almost certainly Padua, in the 1450s by a group of artists in the circle of Andrea Mantegna.
		The drawings illustrate subjects from the Tacuinum Sanitatis or Table of Health, constituting a major portion of one of only four surviving illustrated sets of this essential early Renaissance guide to life style.

	Medieval Bestiary : Manuscript C-67
		The cover of the manuscript inscribed with the name of Albertus Magnus in a later hand; the text was formerly ascribed to Albertus Magnus.
		The Tacuinum sanitatis as preserved in this manuscript is an incomplete version, containing only 66 of the more than 200 descriptions contained in other illustrated Tacuina.
		The captions or text are based on the Taqwim al-sihhah of Ibn Butlan, which was unillustrated.
