W. H. Lizars - Copperplate Engraving — Anatomical Print — 19th Century Skull & Mandible Study – Plate VI

A finely detailed 19th‑century copperplate engraving by William Home Lizars, depicting multiple anatomical views of the human skull and jaw. Each numbered figure illustrates bone and dental structures from different angles — lateral, frontal, and basal — with delicate shading and precise linework typical of Lizars’ Edinburgh medical school series.

The sepia tone and balanced composition make it both scientifically instructive and visually elegant.

Printed on period paper with clear anatomical labelling and strong detail — a representative teaching plate from the golden age of medical illustration.  Shipped  in an archival sleeve and ready for conservation framing.

From John Lizars’ famous anatomical atlas: A System of Anatomical Plates of the Human Body (Edinburgh, 1823–1827). Engraved on copper by William Home Lizars and hand‑coloured. Cited in Cushing L313; Heirs of Hippocrates 1436; Waller 5950; Wellcome III: 531.
