History of the Code: The manuscript was discovered in 1752 by physician Giovanni Targioni Tozzetti and acquired by the National Central Library of Florence in 1912.
Related Studies: Treccani has curated the analysis of anatomical preparations, highlighting the sectorial practice and the historical-scientific context.
