EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning print captures a piece of medical history with an illustration from the 'Fasciculus medicinae', the first printed book to contain anatomical illustrations. Created in Venice in 1494 by Johannes de Ketham, a German physician living in Italy at the end of the fifteenth century, this book revolutionized the study of anatomy.
The intricate details of internal anatomy depicted in this print showcase the skill and precision of both the artist and anatomist behind this groundbreaking work. The combination of artistry and scientific knowledge is truly remarkable, offering a glimpse into how medicine was practiced during this pivotal period in history.
Venice, known for its rich cultural heritage and artistic contributions, served as the perfect backdrop for such an important publication. The influence of Italian craftsmanship can be seen throughout this print, highlighting the expertise and dedication that went into creating such a significant piece of literature.
