One possible source is the book Lawden, D. F. Elliptic functions and applications. New York, NY etc.: Springer-Verlag, 1989,

  • Lawden, D. F. Elliptic functions and applications, New York, NY etc.: Springer-Verlag, 1989, doi:10.1007/978-1-4757-3980-0,

(esp. Ch. 4 Geometrical Geometrical Applications). In partiqular it contains the proof of addition theorem for Jacobi elliptic functions based on the formulae of spherical trigonometry. Probably many such gems are collected in old books. In partiqular this (Legendre's) proof is presented in the book Cayley, A. An elementary treatise on elliptic functions 2nd ed. Dover Publications, Inc., New York, 1961 (p. 27).

One more collection is the Dissertation Snape, J. Applications of elliptic functions in classical and algebraic geometry University of Durham, 2004.dissertation

Also there is a special book Dragović, V. & Radnović, M. Poncelet porisms and beyond. Integrable billiards, hyperelliptic Jacobians and pencils of quadrics. Basel: Birkhäuser, 2011,
