About the Item
Anatomy Print with Skeleton, Skull and Organs by T Bromme, circa 1865
This original 19th-century anatomical lithograph is attributed to the German geographer and publisher Traugott Bromme and was most likely published in one of his scientific or geographic atlases around 1865. The plate is a detailed study of the human body and internal structure, featuring finely engraved illustrations of the skeleton, skull, musculature, nervous system, and various internal organs.
At the center is a full human skeleton, surrounded by smaller diagrams including the muscular face, internal organs such as the heart, lungs, stomach, intestines, brain, eyes, and inner ear. Each element is labeled with corresponding letters, indicating its original use in educational or reference contexts. This kind of diagram would have served as a visual aid for schools, medical instruction, or general scientific literacy during a time when public interest in anatomy and biology was growing alongside the rise of natural sciences.
Here is a breakdown of the numbered anatomical illustrations from the print you uploaded. Each number corresponds to a specific body part or system, based on typical 19th-century anatomical charts and their visual representation:
1. Full human skeleton
2. Muscles of the face and neck (anterior view of the facial musculature)
3. Human skull (lateral view)
4. Digestive system (esophagus, stomach, intestines)
5. Lung with bronchial branches (right lung, external structure)
6. Heart and lungs (with arteries and trachea)
7. Heart (anterior cross-section showing chambers and valves)
8. Stomach and intestines (upper digestive tract with internal folds)
9. Spinal cord and brain stem (nervous system, including spinal nerves)
10. Brain with cranial nerves (lateral view showing cerebrum and nerves)
11. Nasal cavity and sinus anatomy (sagittal section)
12. Kidney and adrenal gland with renal arteries and veins
13. Inner ear (cochlea and semicircular canals)
14. Human eye (horizontal cross-section showing retina, lens, and optic nerve)
15. Teeth and jawbones (molars, incisors, and jaw sections)
This style of diagram was intended for educational use, so the lettered parts within each figure likely correspond to detailed Latin labels in the original publication.
Traugott Bromme was known for creating illustrated atlases that encompassed not just geography, but also zoology, ethnography, and human anatomy. His works are prized today for their visual clarity and historical significance, offering a rare glimpse into how 19th-century Europeans conceptualized and taught the structure of the human body.
The lithographic technique used here displays meticulous line work, creating depth and clarity in each anatomical rendering. This print would make a valuable addition to any collection focused on medical history, early science, or antique prints.
