Bilder Giulio Cesare Casserius (1552–1616) & Adrian van den Spieghel (1578–1625) – "Tab. IX – Anatomical Study of Brain and Cranial Nerves" – Copperplate Engraving (1645)
Beskrivning
This engraving from Lib. XI, Tab. IX features a detailed anatomical study of the brain and cranial nerves. The figures (Fig. I and Fig. II) illustrate various aspects of the brain’s internal structures, including the branching nerves and their connections to other parts of the body. The precise labeling in Latin reflects the early modern scientific approach to studying the nervous system, offering insights into how 17th-century anatomists perceived and documented brain function and structure.
This engraving is part of the posthumous publication of Giulio Cesare Casserius's works, completed and published in 1645 by Adrian van den Spieghel (Spigelius). Casserius’s work laid the foundation for the modern understanding of neuroanatomy, and the precision and clarity of these engravings are a testament to his scientific rigor.
