Triton, in Schott's from ''Physica-Curiosa'' (1697 ed.)

Summary

[edit]
Description
English: A Triton from Schott's Physica-Curiosa (1697 ed.), first published 1662. The drawing is similar to monstum marinum in Gesner (1558), p. 552, (1604) p. 441.
Sidenote: there is a similar engraving which has been reprinted by Llewellynn Jewitt which he claims is found in some work by Rondelet, but the exact bibliographical information (page, etc.) is wanting.[1]
