Jacques-Pierre Maygrier's 'Childbirth Demonstrations' is a rare 19th-century medical treatise focusing on all aspects of pregnancy, midwifery, and childbirth. While numerous works on childbirth exist from this era, this particular work is of the utmost desirability – it contains incredible full-page and double-page engravings each depicting male and female anatomy, various stages of pregnancy, and infant deformities and maladies.
