"Anatomy of the victim”

Gruesome…but also oh SO incredible! The top and bottom images are from a Japanese makimono (pictorial scroll) dated 1842 and ominously titled, Anatomy of the victim. Author: Midori. Artist: Hayashi Yushi.

"This makimono, representing the dissection of the body of a convict, is a copy of an original work dated 1796." Source: BIU.

In the center image on the left side are Andreas Vesalius’ drawings of the same dissection, published in De Humani Corporis Fabrica (1543.) On the right side are images from Juan Valverde de Hamusco’s Historia de la composicion del cuerpo humano (1556.) Those illustrations were unauthorized copies of Vesalius’ drawings. Source: Neurology.

I wonder about how and when these images traveled between the East and West. What happens as the visual culture of brain science work its way through cultures and across time?
