Brain anatomy, 14th century artwork
Brain anatomy, 14th century artwork. The cranial vault (top of the skull, left) has been removed and two of the skull sutures (zig-zag lines) are shown. At right, the external brain membrane, the dura mater, is shown. The artwork is from Anathomia (1345), by the Italian anatomist Guido da Vigevano. The brain anatomy drawings in this manuscript are considered the first accurate human neuroanatomical drawings

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable piece of 14th-century artwork depicting brain anatomy. Created by the renowned Italian anatomist Guido da Vigevano, this illustration is taken from his manuscript titled Anathomia (1345). Considered to be the earliest accurate human neuroanatomical drawings, these intricate sketches provide invaluable insights into our understanding of the brain's structure during medieval times. In this particular artwork, we can observe the cranial vault with its top removed on the left side. This reveals two skull sutures represented by zig-zag lines, offering a glimpse into ancient surgical practices and knowledge of skull anatomy. On the right side, we are presented with an illustration of the external brain membrane known as dura mater. The monochromatic nature of this art piece adds to its historical charm and authenticity. It serves as a testament to both artistic skill and scientific curiosity prevalent in European society during that era. As we explore this image further, it becomes evident that it not only represents a significant milestone in medical history but also highlights how far neuroscience has progressed since then. The meticulous attention to detail exhibited in these drawings demonstrates an earnest pursuit of knowledge about one of humanity's most complex organs – the human brain. This photograph print from Science Photo Library allows us to appreciate and reflect upon our ancestors' dedication to unraveling the mysteries hidden within our own minds.
