Brisbane (John). The Anatomy of Painting: Or, A Short and Easy Introduction to Anatomy: being a new edition, on a smaller scale, of six tables of Albinus, with their linear figures, also, a new translation of Albinus`s history of that work, and of his index to the six tables: to which are added the Anatomy of Celsus, with notes, and the physiology of Cicero, with an introduction, giving a short view of picturesque anatomy, 1st edition, printed by George Scott, 1769, title with engraved vignette, six full-page engraved anatomical plates, each with matching full-page engraving with the bones and ligaments identified, some spotting to first and last few leaves, minor water stain occasionally to extreme head of inner margin only, untrimmed (sheet size 39 x 25 cm), endpapers renewed, contemporary boards with old reback, and library gilt stamp to foot of spine, light library stamp to title and each plate, soiled and somewhat worn, folio (1)
Eustachi (Bartolomeo). Tabulae anatomicae, edited by Giovanni Maris Lancisi, 1st edition, Rome: F. Gonzaga, 1714, title with engraved vignette after Pier Leone Ghezzi, 47 fine copper-engraved plates after Eustachi and Pier Matteo Pini, (bound without the unnumbered graduated scale plate), woodcut initials, title detached, library stamps, occasional light spotting, library cloth, small tear at head of spine, folio, (375 x 250mm) Only the first eight plates were issued during Eustachi`s lifetime (for his Opuscula Anatomica, 1564), the whole series of 47 plates prepared in 1552 for Eustachi`s intended work De Dissensionibus ac Controversiis Anatomicis. The other thirty-nine plates (with framed rules on three sides to provide coordinates for reference), remained unprinted and forgotten in the Vatican Library until discovered in the early 18th century, and were then presented by Pope Clement XI to his physician, Giovanni Maria Lancisi... These copperplates are more accurate than the work of Vesalius. Singer was of the opinion that had they appeared in 1552 Eustachius would have ranked with Vesalius as one of the founders of modern anatomy. He discovered the Eustachian tube, the thoracic duct, the adrenals and the abducens nerve, and gave the first accurate description of the uterus. He also described the cochlea, the muscles of the throat and the origin of the optic nerves` (G-M 391); Norman 740; Wellcome II, p. 536. (1)
