Saggi di Naturali Esperienze (Firenze, 1667)
This work, Essays on Natural Experiments, was published by the Accademia del Cimento and brings together a decade of work.  Throughout this work, there are explanations for the experiments and images of the apparatuses.  Additionally, the text contains many capitals showing putti, angels, and others working tirelessly using physics equipment shown in the images of this work.  [At this time, the depiction of putti suggested love.]
