Twee aanblikken van een prostaat met hypertrofie van de kwabben before 1894

This black and white photograph, "Twee aanblikken van een prostaat met hypertrofie van de kwabben," by Albert Ludwig Sigesmund Neisser is a medical illustration depicting two views of a prostate with enlarged lobes. The image is a clear example of anatomical illustration, a common practice in medicine during the late 19th century, which served to provide visual documentation and understanding of the human body. Neisser, a prominent German physician, is known for his research on gonorrhea and the discovery of the Neisseria gonorrhoeae bacteria. The artwork, dating back to before 1894, exemplifies the growing use of photography in scientific documentation during that era.
