1920192341920. Original Vintage Photograph from June 1920 of a group of young scientists including a young woman doing a dissection of a human skeletal cadaver. Black and white silver gelatin photograph. 7" x 5" photograph on 8" x 10" board. Captioned "June 1920" on verso. It is likely that this coeducational group are medical students with one older man in glasses seeming to be their instructor. In the background we can see a variety of anatomical drawings as well as bones preserved in liquid in a glass case. The students wear white lab coats except for the female student who is wearing a white gown. While women had entered the nursing profession in large numbers during the 19th century there were still very few female doctors in 1920 making this photo a depiction of a rather uncommon scene. There is a horizontal crack along the upper part of the board which is holding but delicate. The photo itself has a very small closed tear and a small blue smudge in the bottom left corner but is in very good condition overall. unknown

1770ST20219London: Printed for Robert Sayer ca. 1770. 380 x 242 mm. 15 x 9 1/2". 4 leaves of text followed by plates. <br/> Original gray paper wrappers. WITH EIGHT FINE ENGRAVED PLATES of the male body in various poses three depicting the skeleton and five the musculature. Russell 816; Wellcome V p. 273; ESTC N51161. See also Russell "John Tinney's Compendium Anatomicum and its publishers." Wrapper a bit soiled and foxed corners torn with two snags two-inch and half-inch to lower cover most of spine chipped away but the stitching holding the book firmly together; mild offsetting from engravings and a few spots of foxing but a really excellent copy internally the leaves fresh and clean and with very good impressions of the engravings.<br/> <br/> This rare collection of striking anatomical engravings is wonderfully preserved in its original unrestored wrappers. First published in 1743 as "Compendium Anatomicum" the work's plates are adapted from the famous anatomies of Vesalius and Cowper. It was intended as a reference work for artists but as its name suggests it was published with a wider audience in mind. As Tinney humbly tells the reader in the subtitle this is "a work not only very useful but absolutely necessary to painters statuaries and all professors of drawing and design as well as a proper introduction to the study of anatomy for the use of young surgeons" not to mention an "instructive furniture for the studies and libraries of the curious." The work remained in print for a full century though because it was a frequently used book few copies have come down to us in collectible condition. John Tinney ca. 1706-61 was an engraver and print seller who dealt in a wide variety of material being particularly known for maps and satirical prints as well as the present work. Our edition while undated almost certainly dates to the period between 1762-70. The first posthumous edition of "A Compendious Treatise" was released in 1762 by Robert Sayer a map and print seller who was an associate of Tinney's during his lifetime and who likely purchased his stock of plates from his widow following his 1761 death. In 1770 Sayer began a partnership with John Bennett after which the firm was known as "Sayer and Bennett." Since the present edition was published under Sayer's name alone it no doubt comes from the period following the 1762 edition but before the partnership. The present copy has made it through the centuries in remarkably good condition given its flimsy binding and the plates inside with their cheerfully macabre figures remain quite fresh and pleasing.

174325189Leiden: Joannem & Hermannum Verbeek 1743. From the first edition of one of the greatest of all Anatomical Atlases. Tabula IX which features Albinus and Wandelaar's famous "Muscle Man" a skinned figure whose musculature is visible and defined as viewed in walking profile with the left arm raised and the right foot forward his head is turned slightly away from the viewer. Elephant folio 620 by 475 mm single folio sheet now mounted with the use of none-evasive corner tabs and protected by mylar. Very well preserved fully intact with only the most minor evidence of age. ONE OF THE MAGNIFICENT PLATES FROM "AMONG THE MOST ARTISTICALLY PERFECT OF ANATOMICAL ATLASES." Wandelaar placed his skeletons and musclemen against lush ornamental backgrounds to give them the illusion of vitality using contrasts of mass and light to produce a three-dimensional effect. The most famous plate in the atlas depicts a skeletal figure standing in front of an enormous grazing rhinoceros sketched by Wandelaar from the first living specimen in Europe which had arrived at Amsterdam zoo in 1741" Norman.<br> The plates in this large folio work and in the four supplementary works in large folio with which it is bound are unsurpassed for their cool elegant aesthetic and scientific accuracy. They were drawn and engraved by Jan Wandelaer a pupil of the engravers Jacob Fokema and Guillem van der Gouwen and the painter Gerard de Lairesse who prepared the drawings for Bidloo's atlas. Prior to working for Albinus Wandelaer worked for Friedrik Ruysch. Albinus however provided Wandelaar with the opportunity for the full expression of his talents as a draftsman and engraver. <br> In an attempt to increase the scientific accuracy of anatomical illustration Albinus and Wandelaar devised a new technique of placing nets with square webbing at specified intervals between the artist and the anatomical specimen and copying the images using the grid patterns. Wandelaer placed each figure in a carefully chosen landscape setting and the artistic results are so pleasantly successful that the anatomical figures although composed of many separate parts appear to be actually stepping out of the picture.

Contemporary half calf and marbled boards though now with a later cloth spine occasional foxing more especially at the front ex-libris with stamps and book-label on the front paste-down neat oval stamp on verso of title and in margin of last page overall a very good copy. MAGNUS FALCONAR not in Munk or Plarr was a friend and colleague of William Hewson surgeon anatomist and physiologist; in 1772 Hewson established and ran an anatomy school at 36 Craven Street where Franklin lodged in London now the Benjamin Franklin House museum. In 1998 workmen restoring this building dug up the remains of six children and four adults hidden below the home. The Times reported on 11 February 1998: 'Initial estimates are that the bones are about 200 years old and were buried at the time Franklin was living in the house which was his home from 1757 to 1762 and from 1764 to 1775. Most of the bones show signs of having been dissected sawn or cut. One skull has been drilled with several holes. Paul Knapman the Westminster Coroner said yesterday: "I cannot totally discount the possibility of a crime. There is still a possibility that I may have to hold an inquest." ' The Friends of Benjamin Franklin House noted that the bones were likely placed there by Hewson who lived in the house for two years. They also note that Franklin likely knew what Hewson was doing. Proof was demonstrated by archaeological evidence which showed liquid mercury associated with turtle bones and vermilion colouring associated with dog bones found in the deposit. Hewson had documented experimentation on the lymphatic system using both substances and animals. Hewson died on 1 May 1774 as a result of sepsis contracted whilst dissecting a cadaver. His work was continued after his death by Magnus Falconar who had married Hewson's sister Dorothy in September 1774. Falconar repeated Hewson's experiments on the spleen and thymus and as a result re-published Hewson's work on red blood cells in 1777 together with his corroboration Experimental inquiries: part the third. Containing a description of the red particles of the blood in the human subject and in other animals; with an account of the structure and offices of the lymphatic glands of the Thymus Gland and of the Spleen: being the remaining part of the observations and experiments of the late Mr. William Hewson F.

First Edition in Latin. 540 x 380 mm. 21 1/4 x 15". 70 leaves of text.Translated by William Dundass. <br/> Original red quarter vellum over marbled boards raised bands UNTRIMMED EDGES. Engraved printer's device on title large decorative initials and tailpieces EXTRA ENGRAVED TITLE AND 114 STRIKING PLATES OF ANATOMICAL FIGURES three folding. Wellcome II 401; Heirs of Hippocrates 468; Choulant-Frank pp. 252-3; Russell 213. ◆Vellum on spine rather worn with three one-and-one-half-inch pieces broken away revealing structure underneath paper boards quite chafed other minor problems externally but an entirely solid unrestored binding. A couple of plates with short closed marginal tears one folding plate with one-inch closed tear into image no loss untrimmed edges a little browned and brittle with isolated small chips occasional minor foxing or insignificant stains three plates lightly browned but still AN UNUSUALLY ATTRACTIVE COPY INTERNALLY with the broadest of margins with especially clean and fresh leaves and with rich impressions of the plates.<br/> <br/> With plates of notable visual impressiveness this was the finest anatomy book in England during the first half of the 18th century; it also was largely a plagiarism borrowing most of its engraved content from a work by the Dutch physician Govert Bidloo published in 1685. Bidloo's work was the first large-scale anatomical atlas to appear after Vesalius' epoch-making "De Humani Corporis Fabrica" and the plates which are highly praised by Norman and Garrison-Morton are characterized by startlingly detailed life-size depictions of the human body both adult and infant with figures flayed to reveal muscles opened to show organs and unfleshed to exhibit bones. According to Choulant-Frank Bidloo's publishers sold 300 impressions of these plates to Cowper probably to recoup some of their money after disappointing sales. Cowper took Bidloo's original 105 plates added nine of his own and produced an English translation of the original Latin text to accompany them. Discussing the original plates produced by Gerard de Lairesse 1641-1711 Norman says that the figures are displayed "in an emotional almost tender manner contrasting the raw dissected parts with the full soft surfaces of uncut flesh placing flayed bound figures in ordinary nightclothes or bedding setting ordinary household objects such as books jars or cabinets in the same scene as cut-up torsos or limbs. His illustrations brought the qualities of Dutch still-life painting into anatomical illustration and gave a new darker spiritual expression to the significance of the act of dissection." When Cowper's version of the atlas first appeared as "The Anatomy of Humane Bodies" in London in 1698 there was also a 1737 Leyden printing in English before our more scholarly Latin edition Bidloo complained to the Royal Society and accused Cowper of plagiarism and fraud resulting in much acrimony and heated pamphleteering between the two physicians. Notwithstanding this scandal Cowper's achievements and discoveries--including the pair of glands that bear his name--were considerable and his text improved significantly upon the original work. Unfortunately as the DNB notes "the notoriety of this case has served to obscure a true appreciation of Cowper and of his many original contributions to anatomical illustration." The atlases of Bidloo and Cowper appear on the market regularly but at 540 x 380 mm. the present copy is distinguished by its size which is significantly larger than what is typically seen with this edition--we have not been able to trace a copy larger than ours from marketplace or institutional records.

Shelved in Room A. The first work in this set is the second edition of Flemish surgeon Jean Palfin's Jan Palfijn's very famous treatise on anatomy which was first published in 1726 under the title Anatomie du Corps Humain. This work and its earlier edition were very influential in the medical field for their detailed anatomical illustrations and descriptive actionable advice for surgeons becoming a widespread authoritative medical text throughout Europe and other parts of the world. <br /> <br /> <br> <br> <br /> <br /> The second work bound together with Vol. II of Anatomie Chirurgicale is a French translation of Frederik Ruysch's Observationum Anatomico-Chirurgicarum Centuria. Ruysch was a renowned anatomist and botanist in his own right most well-known for his anatomical museum - the Cabinet of Curiosities - and his improved embalming technique which preserved bodies for longer periods of time in a more visually life-like state.<br /> <br /> <br> <br> <br /> <br /> The final work also bound together with Vol. II of Anatomie Chirurgicale and Observations Anatomiques is a revised edition of Six Observations by Michel Brisseau who is notable for being the first to demonstrate the true nature of cataracts as an increased opacity of the lens of the eye rather than a film that covered the eye which was the prevailing belief at the time. Together these works comprise a collection of highly influential studies treatises and observations on anatomy and surgery by some of the most notable medical practitioners of the late 17th and early 18th centuries. 1408797.
