Casseri, Giulio Cesare, approximately 1552-1616, Bucretius, Daniel, -1631, History of Medicine Collections (Duke University) NcD · 1632 · Francofurti : Impensis & coelo Matthaei Meriani · 62 pictures

This is a 1632 Frankfurt anatomical atlas of seventy-eight plates by Giulio Cesare Casseri, edited by Daniel Bucretius, intended for medical students and physicians studying the human body. The plates show figures flayed to expose muscles, bones and nerves, drawn in fine engraved hatching with lettered keys; a designer might borrow their precise linework, dense cross-hatching and the stark, skeletal poses of the figures.
