AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Offered is an original French anatomical flap book published in 1900, titled Le Corps Humain, featuring chromolithographed plates with movable superposed flaps illustrating human anatomy.

This type of atlas was produced for medical instruction, scientific education, and advanced popular learning during the late 19th century. The layered plates allow progressive visualization of musculature, skeletal structure, organs, and vascular systems, anticipating modern didactic models.

The work includes multiple full-page anatomical figures, male and female, with hinged paper flaps revealing internal structures. This format represents the paper-based counterpart to contemporary anatomical teaching models and was widely used in schools, medical offices, and scientific libraries.
