AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
VIIth German edition reformatted by A. Brass. Explanatory text by G. Antonelli
Subject: Medicine / Human Anatomy
Year of publication: 1891
Publisher: Riccardo Marghieri di Gius (Naples)
Typography: Angelo Trani, via Medina, 25
Language: Italian (with scientific legends in Latin)
Format: quarto / hardcover (half-era cloth binding)
For sale: splendid and rare antique medical volume: "Atlas of Human Anatomy" by the renowned German professor Carl Ernst Bock. This is the prestigious Italian reprint of the seventh German edition (1890), completely reformed, expanded, and enriched with the drawings by the scientist Arnold Brass.
The main text and the explanatory legends in Italian and Latin were prepared by Dr. Giovanni Antonelli, esteemed ordinary professor of human anatomy at the Royal University of Naples. Published in Naples by the historic publisher Riccardo Marghieri in 1891.
The work is famous for its spectacular and detailed off-text anatomical plates, partially refined and hand-colored in period fashion (in red and blue for the vascular system, in yellow for the nervous system, and in bluish/green hues for cartilages and bony components).
CONDITION OF THE VOLUME (Collector’s item):
Some pages still have the top margins joined and bound by printing (never cut with a knife).
• Pages and Plates: COMPLETE VOLUME. No plates or text pages are missing. The interior is completely free of writing, doodles, or pen/pencil annotations, and there are no tears or page damages. The text and plate details are perfectly legible and clear. Diffused and physiological browning (time-stains) and age-related yellowing of the paper are present, but do not obscure the text or illustrations. Rare antique catalog stamps on the first pages.
• Cover: Contemporary half-green cloth binding with stiff paper boards. Shows evident and natural signs of age, light scratches and wear along edges and corners, but the binding still securely holds the book block.
Measurements: about 31.5 × 22 cm. Pages: 147
• The accompanying photographs are an integral part of the description and show the actual condition of the volume.
