    <dcterms:title><![CDATA[The anatomist Felix Platter, seated at a table covered with surgical instruments in a room with two other men, below which are the figures of Hippocrates and Galen]]></dcterms:title>
    <dcterms:subject><![CDATA[&quot;Felix Platter is shown seated, with two companions, at a table covered with surgical instruments, books, fruit and a bird which he touches while holding a scalpel in his other hand. Below this room are the figures of Hippocrates and Galen, set before niches, on either side of a flayed human skin. (For a similar arrangement, see this catalogue 24939.) On the right base, below Galen is the image of a swan around whose neck is entwined a snake and a crown. On the left base, below Hippocrates, is the image of a crane holding a stone in the claw of its raised leg, an allegory of Vigilance. After studying in Montpellier, Felix Platter returned to Basel to lecture on medicine at the University and be appointed the principal physician of the city. During his student years, he kept a journal that described his experiences and medical education, as well as capturing daily sixteenth-century student-life. In addition to being an anatomist and physician, he was also a collector&quot;]]></dcterms:subject>

    <dcterms:title><![CDATA[Anatomical dissection by Andreas Vesalius of a female cadaver, attended by a large crowd of onlookers]]></dcterms:title>
    <dcterms:subject><![CDATA[&quot;A print taken from the original woodblock, before lettering, of the title page for the 1555 edition of the De humani corporis fabrica libri septem. Among the differences between the recut title page of the 1555 edition and that of the 1543 edition (see this catalogue, no. 24285) is that the title in the cartouche above the skeleton, which now holds a scythe, identifies the author, Andreas Vesalius as the physician to Emperor Charles V. The portrait of Vesalius, who is seen next to the female cadaver, has been adapted to follow the frontispiece portrait of the anatomist, including the details of the mole above his right eye and his brocade cloak. Other changes are the clothing of the man gripping the column on the left of the title page, who in the 1543 edition was nude, the introduction of a goat next to the dog at the lower right for the purposes of comparative anatomy, and the use of a vivisection table to carry the privilege at the bottom of the page (see this catalogue, no. 24377). In addition to the new title page and some alterations to the text, a new type face was employed, new and larger decorated initial letters were cut and the lettering of the figures was made more distinguishable by the removal of the surrounding shading. The original woodblocks were rediscovered in the Munich University library in the late nineteenth century and were used to produce the Icones anatomicae, published by the New York Academy of Medicine in 1934-1935. Not long afterwards these woodblocks, which had survived so many centuries, were destroyed in the second world war&quot;]]></dcterms:subject>

    <dcterms:title><![CDATA[Allegorical and historical scenes of medicine: including a dissection and a distillation laboratory, and Hygieia receiving the organic and mineral bounty of the earth employed in remedies]]></dcterms:title>
    <dcterms:subject><![CDATA[&quot;This title page to the posthumous 1660 publication of Gregor Horst&#039;s complete works is divided into three horizontal registers. A cartouche bearing the title in the central register is crowned by a smaller cartouche in which one sees a cock encircled by a serpent, both symbols of Aesculapius, around which is the motto: &quot;Prudentia et vigilantia&quot;. The figures on either side of the title are Hippocrates, who holds a scroll on which it is written: &quot;vita brevis ars longa&quot; while the other figure, most likely Aristotle, holds aloft an armillary sphere in his right hand and with his left, supports a tablet that reads: &quot;quod est superius est sicut inferius&quot;. In the central scene of the top register, the enthroned figure of Hygieia accepts a vessel from a woman who indicates a female patient in the bed before them, while another woman with clasped hands looks on. With her left hand, Hygieia grasps a cord from which is suspended a pentagram, employed here as an emblem of health, that descends by a hand that emerges through clouds that surround the tetragrammaton, the name Jehovah written in Hebrew. On either side of this room are landscape scenes. On the left a satyr bears a cornucopia of fruits of the earth before a landscape filled with a variety of animals and vegetation, birds and a swarm of bees. On the right Vulcan holds a cornucopia of the elements before a mining scene and an active volcano. Together they represent the harvest of both above and below the earth which may be used in healing. The lower register is concerned with scenes of seventeenth-century medicine. On the left a disputation is taking place, perhaps a degree defence. On the right is a distillation laboratory. In the centre, a human dissection is about to take place in an anatomical theatre. The anatomist, who touches the corpse while indicating the skeleton set up against the pier to the right, is probably Gregor Horst, who was the chief physician of Ulm, and whose portrait, designed by Andreas Schuch and engraved by Johann Friedrich Fleischberger, who also engraved this title page, is included in the book, presents him in similar dress and a square-cut beard&quot;]]></dcterms:subject>
