Description
Bernhard Siegfried Albinus (1697-1770) was a German-born Dutch anatomist. Albinus is best known for Tabulae sceleti et musculorum corporis humani, (Tables of the crime and of the muscles of the human body) published in 1747, largely at his own expense. The artist and engraver with whom Albinus did nearly all of his work was Jan Wandelaar. In an attempt to increase the scientific accuracy of anatomical illustration, Albinus and Wandelaar devised a new technique of placing nets with square webbing at specified intervals between the artist and the anatomical specimen and copying the images using the grid patterns.
