Francis Sibson “Medical Anatomy” Plate X — 19th‑Century Lithograph Dissection Print


A dramatic Victorian medical illustration showing the thoracic and abdominal anatomy in exquisite detail. The reclining figure reveals the ribcage, lungs, heart, and viscera with remarkable precision, printed in rich sepia and ochre tones typical of mid‑19th‑century lithography. Drawn and printed by W. Fairland for Francis Sibson’s Medical Anatomy (1869), this plate combines scientific accuracy with fine artistic composition — a striking piece for collectors of antique anatomy, medical history, or early scientific art.

The subject lies supine, head turned slightly,  eyes closed — a serene pose contrasting with the exposed anatomy. The artist has peeled back the pectoralis muscles and rib cage, revealing the lungs, heart, and upper abdominal viscera. The neck dissection exposes the carotid arteries, jugular veins, and sternocleidomastoid, all drawn with fine gradations of red and sepia typical of mid‑Victorian medical art.
