Galeni omnia quae extant opera / vol. 8- Septimae classis libri

Galien · 1565 · Venise : Junte · 13 pictures

A 1565 Venetian edition of Galen's collected works, printed by the Giunta press, a medical text for physicians and students of anatomy. The woodcuts show numbered and lettered head diagrams of men and women in profile and frontal views, with bands drawn across the skull to mark cranial divisions, and a designer might take their clean line hatching and dense curly hair rendering as a model for schematic instructional imagery.
