Jan l'Admiral - Prints of the Brain and the Heart
Summary
Around 1735 Jan l’Admiral printed several remarkable anatomical prints in colour, among others on commission for the celebrated physician Frederik Ruysch. For his illustrations of the cerebral membrane (the skull of an unborn child) and a human heart he experimented with ever different colours, and made various versions of them. The objective was to provide medical practitioners with the most precise and realistic images possible.
