Engraved title page from Artis Magnae Artilleriae [The Great Art of Artillery]
- Part of Artis Magnae Artilleriae
- 1650

A temple (decorated with geometric symbols, weights, measures, and various weapons and artillery) frames a view into the distance, where rockets and fireballs propel through the sky.
