An original 200 year old hand-colored engraving from a System of Anatomical Plates of the Human Body. Edinburgh: [1823-1827] by John Lizars.

*John Lizars studied with Edinburgh surgeon John Bell and later taught anatomy and surgery in that city. John's brother William Home Lizars (1788-1859) engraved all of the plates on copper. "The book was costly to produce, for the engravings or etchings were, as usual, time-consuming, and the coloring was done skillfully and painstakingly by hand" (Roberts and Tomlinson, The Fabric of the Body, 504-505). "This superb atlas is certainly one of the most elegant works of the nineteenth century" (Cushing L313). Heirs of Hippocrates 1436; Waller 5950; Wellcome III: 531.

Please note these plates have been around for almost  200 years and may show minor spotting (foxing), toning, dust marks and minor closed tears to the outer margins.
