VALVERDE DE HAMUSCO, Juan (fl. 1552 ). La Anatomia del corpo umano . Venice: Giunta, 1586. This Italian edition of Valverde's anatomy includes, for the first time, four additional plates of ‘ muscle men ’ . Valverde became the leading Spanish anatomist of his time. His anatomical atlas was widely used, reprinted, and translated for the next hundred years. All but fifteen of his images were taken directly from the 1543 and 1555 editions of Vesalius's Fabrica , but Valverde obscured the origin of many by combining them or adding extraneous details. Valverede made over sixty corrections and additions to Vesalius's work. Notably, he corrected Vesalius's and Galen's mistaken notion on the movement of the blood through the septum. Wellcome I, 6477; Heirs of Hippocrates 319; Durling 4533; Choulant 205; Adams V-231. Folio (298 x 205 mm). Engraved title page and portrait, 46 only full-page anatomical engravings, including the four plates of ‘muscle men’ (light spotting and staining). 20th-century half vellum (small stains to spine, rubbed).
