Anatomical Atlas - Manual of Descriptive Anatomy of the Human Body

By Dr Cloquet - 1831 - IN COLOUR - Volume III only (There were the text volumes and then the 2 Atlas volumes)

Atlas consisting of 172 lithographed plates, most in colour

Binding very damaged, the leather has been torn from the boards, the first few leaves are fragile, even loose, but the rest is in good condition, the plates are very beautiful: see photos.

Small peculiarity, on the spine it is noted CLOQUET'S in English but all the text is in French.

Please note that this is only Volume 2 of the Atlas, there are no plates from Volume 1 of the Atlas

The title pages at the beginning of the book are missing.

The coloured anatomical plates were drawn by Feillet or Haincelin, and lithographed by Feillet, Langlumé, G. Frey or Mlle Formentin.

The plates are superb, and the book is rare to find.
