Prospectus Amphitheatri Anatomici Constructi Regnante Ludovico Magno... / Veue de l'Amphitheatre Anatomique Construit sous le Regne de Louis le Grand
This view depicts the Amphitheater of Anatomy constructed during Louis XIV's reign in the late 17th century for the French Royal College of Surgeons. Anatomical amphitheaters began appearing during the Renaissance and continued to be constructed as human surgery evolved as a specific discipline. The very ornate theater is filled with windows in the dome to provide superior lighting, and is surrounded by four allegorical figures. Below the amphitheater is an attractive scene of Paris along the Seine River
Grav. (50 x 37 cm), coul. d'époque (Paris, 1694)
