Exceptional and rare series of anatomical drawings, of skinned, of 1790 which illustrate different views of the body of a human being, or partly, stripped of his skin and his fatty tissues, to represent the morphology of the muscles, veins, joints and bones.

Some boards are captioned with numbers or letters.
The six plates may have been the result of a collaboration between a doctor and an artist to illustrate a book and medical treatises and thus present body parts such as medicine described. In the eighteenth century, Enlightenment, medical studies are booming as the publication of books on medicine.
