Summary[edit]

Blood transfusion - 17th century (?)
Title
Blood transfusion - 17th century (?)
Description

"Anthropographia" (?) showing blood transfusion between man and sheep and another figure opening the chest with their hands to show their heart with the words "Fons sanguinis"; ascribed to J. G. Riva (fl 1618) author of 'De triplici infusionis sanguinis experimento'. The full Latin text cannot be read. In larger letters, the image includes the words "Nos Cerebrum", "Cordi Patrono" "Hepati" and "Anthropographia". It also has a list of famous physicians. The image as a whole is similar to the 1741 frontispiece of Tabulae anatomicae ... delineatae, et egregie aeri incisae nunc primum prodeunt, et a Cajetano Petrioli ... notis illustratae by Berrettini de Cortone, Pietro (internet archive) with some elements replaced - the skeleton in the fireplace is replaced by a fire etc.
