Lucas Kilian's 1613 engraving, “Anatomie en fysiologie van het mannelijk lichaam met details van de buikholte, nieren, het hart, geslachtsdeel en het hoofd,” depicts a standing male nude figure with dissected organs, veins, and the head. The detailed anatomical illustration of the male body is surrounded by smaller illustrations of organs and various anatomical details of the male body including the heart, kidneys, and genitals. This 17th-century anatomical engraving was a valuable resource for physicians, students, and artists. The detailed work reflects the increased interest in human anatomy during the Renaissance and the beginning of the scientific revolution. This engraving, currently on display at the Rijksmuseum, is a prime example of the detailed anatomical work of Lucas Kilian.
