Anatomical Atlases from the National Library of Medicine

Filed under: the good old days...


Here's a project we did not know about: a collection of anatomical atlases from the National Library of Medicine's collection.

Each atlas is linked to a brief Author & Title Description, which offers an historical discussion of the work, its author, the artists, and the illustration technique. The Bibliographic Information link provides a bibliographical description of the atlas, so users will know which edition was scanned and if there are any characteristics special to the Library's copy.
