Title: Anatomical Fugitive Sheet, Andreas Vesalius, 1573
Caption: Anatomical fugitive sheet: male figure with the head of Andreas Vesalius. Colored woodcut, 1573. Andreas Vesalius (1514-1564) was a Belgian anatomist who founded modern anatomy. He revolutionized the study of anatomy, ending the teaching of Galen and practicing direct observation by dissection. His results were published in 1543 in the famous book "De Humani Corporis Fabrica" ("On Structure of the Human Body"). The first accurate work on human anatomy, it included many descriptions and fine woodcuts. After this early success, he became a court physician and all but gave up research.
