About This Item
Te Amsterdam, bij: Lodewijk van Es,, 1830.. xiii [i], [82] pp. Folio (25.5 x 40 cm.). recent 3/4 grained chesnut morocco, uncut.. With 47 plates on 38 engraved copper plates, of which 8 with partial contemporary hand colouring. The plates are re-engraved after the plates de Wandelaer made for the Albinus edition of Eustachius (1744). ¶ Very rare, being a reissue of the remainder of the original plates and text sheets of 1798 with only a new title page and preface by Suringar. 'A romantic history attaches to this fine collection of plates, drawn by Eustachius himself and completed in 1552. They remained unprinted and forgotten in the Vatican Library until discovered in the early 18th century, and were then presented by Pope Clement XI to his physician Giovanni Maria Lancisi. The latter published them in 1714 together with his own notes. These copperplates are more accurate than the work of Vesalius. Singer was of the opinion that had they appeared in 1552 Eustachius would have ranked with Vesalius as one of the founders of modern anatomy...' (Garrison & Morton 391). Chouland (p. 202) don't mentions this edition.-- (Light waterstain in the upper corner of a few leaves, a few plates partly slight foxed; the plates are bound befor the text).
