This book expands the art historical perspective on art's connection to anatomy and
medicine, bringing together in one text several case studies from various methodological
perspectives. The contributors focus on the common visual and bodily nature of (figural)
art, anatomy, and medicine around the central concept of modeling (posing, exemplifying
and fabricating). Topics covered include the role of anatomical study in artistic
training, the importance of art and visual literacy in anatomical/medical training
and in the dissemination (via models) of medical knowledge/information, and artistic
representations of the medical body in the contexts of public health and propaganda
