A 1523 Latin anatomy textbook by Jacopo Berengario da Carpi, revised by Bernardino Partenio and printed in Bologna for medical students and physicians. Its woodcuts show standing male figures with the flayed musculature exposed, some with the skin pulled open at the chest, alongside leg diagrams with labelled veins and nerves, framed by ornate scrolling borders a designer could adapt for vintage anatomical graphics.
