EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable piece of European historical scientific illustration from the 18th century. The artwork, rendered in monochrome, depicts the intricate anatomy of a kidney with astonishing detail and precision. It is an invaluable representation of the biological tissue and healthy structure of this vital organ. Published in various academic journals and publications between 1725 and 1734, including "The Philosophical Transactions" by the Royal Society of London, this illustration played a significant role in advancing our understanding of renal circulation. The image beautifully captures the arteries that supply blood to the kidneys, particularly highlighting the renal artery as well as its connection to other blood vessels within the circulatory system. Notably, it also portrays adjacent organs such as adrenal glands that are part of the excretory system. This art piece stands as a testament to both scientific research and artistic expression during this era. Preserved meticulously over centuries, this print is now brought back to life through Todd-White Art Photography's lens. Its inclusion in their collection serves as a reminder of our rich history in exploring human anatomy and how far we have come since then.
