Stunning midcentury print. Title: Cholecystectomy(diagrammatic representation) Plate 1. Published as a service to the surgical professions by Ethicon, Inc. Source- Portfolio of Surgical Interventions by Ethicon 1955. Size: 14.75" x 11.5" This scarce print appears to be hand-colored and is one print out of a 6 piece set. The remaining prints will be available for individual purchase. The print has aging and toning. The corners are bruised. See mark on back of print in photo. **PLEASE NOTE*** This listing is for the pictured print only. The last 3 photos are provided for informational purposes and will not be sent with the print. Introduction: Since man could draw before he could write, recorded history begins with the primitive artist. The first records of drawings are those of biological subjects drawn by the cave men of the Paleolithic Period and medical pictures carved on bone or stone can be seen in our museums today. Greek vase paintings, executed before the time of Christ, indicate man's early interest in medical and biological subjects. Medical illustrating as we understand it started during the Renaissance with the work of Leonardo Da Vinci. The first great medical illustrator, he made more than 750 separate anatomical sketches. From Kalkar, who illustrated the works of Vesalius, to Brodel, the twentieth century master, medical illustrating has contributed much to man's understanding of the human body. The enclosed Ethicon prints represent an effort to achieve the simplicity of abstract design without losing medical identity. This the artist has tried to do by blending anatomy and artistry in those proportions best designed to preserve the essential elements of each.
