AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Bourgery and Jacob, Traité complet de l'anatomie de l'homme, 9 volumes, 2nd edition (Paris, L. Guérin, 1866–1867)
Nine folio volumes (vols. 2 to 8, 7 bis, and supplement) from the revised second edition of one of the great anatomical atlases of the 19th century. Jean-Baptiste Bourgery devoted his life to this work, which he died before seeing completed, while Nicolas-Henri Jacob, a pupil of David, drew the lithographed plates from life. Hence their neoclassical quality: dissections presented like academic figure studies, intended for surgeons and bibliophiles.
The plates are color lithographs, in very good condition [to be confirmed in the several photographs]. Contemporary half-red-leather binding with raised bands and gilt tooling, showing rubbing, losses to the spines and headcaps, and general wear, visible in the photos.
Volume 1 (Osteology and Arthrology) is missing.
Tracked shipping and careful packaging.
