EDITORS COMMENTS
This 19th-century artwork, a hand-coloured lithographic print titled "Respiratory Anatomy" offers a glimpse into the intricate structure of the human respiratory system. Created by Jean-Baptiste Marc Bourgery and illustrated by Nicolas-Henri Jacob, this historical piece showcases the internal workings of our lungs with remarkable detail. In this front view illustration set against a clean white background, we observe the trachea or windpipe descending vertically from the larynx at the top center. The trachea then branches out into two bronchi, which further divide into numerous bronchioles within each lung on either side. This depiction provides an insightful visual representation of how air travels through our respiratory system. The artist's skillful rendering highlights not only the anatomical accuracy but also captures the beauty inherent in biological structures. With its meticulous attention to detail and vibrant colors, this lithograph serves as both an artistic masterpiece and an educational tool for those interested in understanding human anatomy. Originally featured in "Traite complet de l'anatomie de l'homme" volume four published in 1836, this print holds significant historical value. It sheds light on early scientific advancements and contributes to our knowledge of pulmonary function. Science Photo Library proudly presents this extraordinary piece that combines artistry with scientific exploration—a testament to humanity's continuous quest for understanding our own bodies.
