4 Andreas Vesalius was a brilliant artist that used his artwork to illustrate his knowledge of the human body, but unfortunately it was usually inaccurate, because he based his discoveries of the human body from animals instead of the actual human. Most of his artwork like the “Fabrica” show death internally through the skeletal system to Demonstrate the mechanics of how human beings die. He was one of the very first people to do dissections of the body. 1543 A.D

5 This picture was featured in Vesalius’ De Humani Corporis Fabrica published in 1534. It shows a figure with the tendons hanging. Look carefully and you will see a dog’s muscle, marked ‘x’ near the clavicle. 1534 A.D

Through the particular drawing of the “Tabulae Anatomicae” he illustrates the kidney, adrenal glands, auditory organs, nervous system, and teeth. His drawings were so advanced for their time, that if Eustachi had published them publicly his work would have been considered anatomy par excellance of his time.

7 Bartolomeo Eustachi ► This picture was found in a book Anatomical Engravings which unfortunately was not published until 1714. ► It shows a brain, the spinal cord, the many nerves attached to it. ► This picture was the most accurate drawing of origin, course, and distribution of the nerves that was ever shown during this period.

8 Henry Gray “Gray’s Anatomy” is a very detailed book about the entire body’s functions, and was very revolutionary at the time, because knowledge of the body was very primal and medicine wasn’t really advanced because people of that time didn’t comprehend how the body functioned. Through Henry Gray’s drawing like this one of the human head, it shows how the body functions. His medical drawings are still used in today’s practices. 1840 A.D
