‎---- EDITION ORIGINALE DEVENUE TRES RARE ---- BEL EXEMPLAIRE ---- TRES BEAU TIRAGE DES PLANCHES ---- GARRISON N° 395.2 : "27 ANATOMICAL COPPERPLATES after drawings BY THE MOST INFLUENTIAL PAINTER OF THE ITALIAN BAROQUE MOVEMENT, who also excelled as an architect. The editor, Cajetano Petrioli, supplied the text and small numbered anatomical "figures" in the margins of the plates ---- Heirs of Hippocrates N° 470 : "This RARE VOLUME contains 27 LARGE ANATOMICAL PLATES which were engraved by Luca Ciamberlano, but it is not known why they lay unpublished for more than a century. They were edited, in this first edition, by Gaetano Petrioli..." ---- "... G. Petrioli, surgeon to Vicotr Amadeus II of Sardinia, who had also come into possession of Eustachius'celebrated plates of which he published revised editions after the death of Lancisi, adds a commentary... The first twenty plates deal chifley with muscles, nerves and blood vessels, with the nerves everywhere emphasized, leading to the conclusion that the book they were originally intented to illustrate was to be neurology texte, and not an anatomy for artists or other general anatomy. The highly dramatic engravings and their landscape backgrounds are, nevertheless, consistent with Pietro's artistic style. Plates 21-23 deal with the brain, the eye, and the ear, plate 24 represents the cutaneous veins and valves of the veins, plate 25 represents the spinal column and the spinal cord taken out of it, plate 26 shows three skeletons in Vesalius' style and plate 27 represents the only female body in the whole collection, with their abdominal cavity open. A side figure on the same plate shows the open uterus with the foetus...". (Hagelin) ---- Choulant-Frank pp. 235/239**482/ARM4‎
