Anatomical Drawing – Plate XLVI: Right Leg, Thigh Muscles & Vascular System (1866)
This rare 19th-century antique medical illustration is an original colour lithograph print from Illustrations of the Anatomy of the Human Body by George Henry Ford (1808–1876). Created in London, circa 1866, the plate shows the muscles and vascular structure of the upper leg, drawn life-size from actual dissections and printed in true-to-nature color. Ford’s meticulous technique exemplifies the scientific precision and artistic mastery of Victorian anatomical art. A striking and educational piece for collectors, medical historians, or admirers of fine antique anatomical prints.
Dimensions: 55cm × 37cm. Condition: Good clear bright strong image. Foxing and staining right hand margin -consistent with age and use in 19th-century surgical training. Corners trimmed.

★★★★★ Instant talking point
“I bought one of Room Four's antique anatomical prints for my study and it's become the first thing visitors notice. The detail is incredible, the print quality is razor-sharp, and it has that perfect blend of science, history and art. It looks like something you'd find in a private medical library.”

★★★★★ Exactly the dark-academic look I wanted
