Trunk arteries, 1825 artwork
Trunk arteries. Dissection showing the internal mammary arteries (red, in chest) and the epigastric arteries (red, in groin and abdomen), from a mans trunk (torso). At left, more muscles have been removed, showing where the arteries lie in relation to overlying and underlying structures. This anatomical artwork is plate 235 from volume 4 of Manuel d anatomie descriptive du corps humain (1825). This 5-volume anatomy atlas was produced by French physician and surgeon Jules Germain Cloquet (1790-1883). The illustrations were by Haincelin. Volume 4 illustrated the anatomy of the circulatory and respiratory systems

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable artwork from 1825 titled "Trunk Arteries". The intricate dissection reveals the internal mammary arteries, depicted in vibrant red within the chest region, and the epigastric arteries, also highlighted in red across the groin and abdomen. This detailed illustration originates from a dissected male torso, where additional muscles have been carefully removed to expose the precise location of these vital blood vessels in relation to surrounding structures. The artwork is plate 235 from volume 4 of Manuel d'anatomie descriptive du corps humain (1825), an esteemed five-volume anatomy atlas created by renowned French physician and surgeon Jules Germain Cloquet (1790-1883). The illustrations were skillfully executed by Haincelin. Volume 4 specifically focuses on elucidating the complexities of the circulatory and respiratory systems. Transporting us back to the early 19th century, this historical piece provides invaluable insights into human anatomy. It highlights not only the superficial aspects but delves deep into our vascular system, shedding light on how oxygenated blood flows through our bodies. With its meticulous attention to detail and scientific accuracy, this anatomical artwork serves as a testament to both medical knowledge at that time and artistic prowess. As we gaze upon this mesmerizing image, we are reminded of our intricate inner workings—the interconnectedness of arteries coursing through our chests and abdomens—showcasing nature's brilliance within each individual's unique physiology.
