EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases Raymond Vieussens, a renowned French anatomist who lived from approximately 1635 to 1715. The artwork is extracted from his book Omnuim corporis humani nervorum, published in 1685. The Latin inscription at the lower right corner indicates that he was depicted at the age of 42, although some sources suggest he was born in 1641. The text also highlights his name in Latin and references Montpellier, the city where he conducted his studies and professional work. Vieussens is celebrated for his significant contributions to cardiac research, particularly for providing the first accurate description of the left ventricle. This intricate engraving was skillfully crafted by Jean Boulanger, capturing not only Vieussens' likeness but also conveying a sense of historical significance. The monochrome artwork portrays an adult male figure with distinct European features. It represents an important era in biology and medicine during the seventeenth century when physicians like Vieussens dedicated their lives to unraveling the complexities of human anatomy and physiology. This remarkable piece serves as a testament to Vieussens' legacy as a pioneering anatomist and physician. It offers viewers a glimpse into medical history while showcasing both artistic finesse and scientific precision.
