Anatomical Drawing 19th Century Quain - Vascular Legs

An original 19th‑century anatomical colour lithograph illustrating “The superficial veins of the lower extremity”, printed in London for Taylor & Walton, official booksellers and publishers to the University of London.
Produced circa 1844, this teaching plate was created for medical students and combines scientific accuracy with finely rendered Victorian anatomical detail.

Now approaching 200 years old, the print may show light, age‑appropriate characteristics such as gentle toning, foxing, or minor edge wear—typical of authentic antique medical plates and part of its historical appeal. The image remains clear, bright, and well‑preserved.
