About this print
Table XV of the muscles drops the scenery altogether. Instead the page is filled with a row of tall vertebral columns, each shown with one group of the muscles that run along the spine, and a second row of shorter studies beneath, all labelled in a neat engraved Latin hand. It is the part of the atlas where Jan Wandelaar's line is at its most exact, and the repetition gives the sheet a rhythm close to a musical score. Albinus published it in Leiden in 1747; the Wellcome Collection's copy is the public domain source. Light and graphic, it suits a clean white wall. Printed to order at gallery scale in its own fixed palette.
