Anatomia, ex Caspari Bartholini parentis Institutionibus :
An anatomy textbook by Thomas Bartholin, adapting his father Caspar Bartholin's institutions, printed at The Hague in 1666 for medical students and physicians. Its plates are numbered Tabulae of dissected torsos, abdominal organs, vessels and the liver, drawn as fine black-line engravings on cream paper with lettered keys. A designer might take from them the precise, diagrammatic line work of early scientific illustration and its rhythmic branching vessel patterns.
