Title:
The Anatomy Lesson of Dr. Nicolaes Tulp
Caption:
Entitled: "The Anatomy Lesson of Dr. Nicolaes Tulp" reproduction of painting by Rembrandt van Rijn. Human dissection is commonly practiced in the teaching of anatomy for students of medicine. No universal prohibition of dissection or autopsy was exercised during the Middle Ages. Some European countries began legalizing the dissection of executed criminals for educational purposes in the late 13th and early 14th centuries. The Anatomy Lesson of Dr. Nicolaes Tulp is a 1632 oil painting on canvas by Rembrandt. Tulp is pictured explaining the musculature of the arm to medical professionals. Some of the spectators are various doctors who paid commissions to be included in the painting. Oil painting after Rembrandt van Rijn (not original).
