Jean Baptiste Marc Bourgery (1797–1849) began work on his Atlas of Anatomy in 1830 in co-operation with illustrator Nicolas Henri Jacob. Over almost two decades, eight volumes were produced, covering descriptive anatomy, surgical anatomy and techniques. The hand-coloured lithographs are remarkable for their clarity, reflecting a combination of direct laboratory observation and illustrative research.
