Rygrad med brystkasse og bækken, set forfra. 1660 - 1663

This anatomical drawing by Karel van Mander III, created between 1660 and 1663, showcases a detailed depiction of the human rib cage and pelvic bones. The skeletal structure is presented from a frontal perspective, allowing for a clear view of the interconnectedness of the bones. This drawing, now housed at the Statens Museum for Kunst in Denmark, exemplifies the meticulous approach to anatomical studies prevalent in the 17th century. While serving as a scientific tool for understanding human anatomy, it also reflects the artistic skill of the artist in capturing the intricate details of the human form.
