Excerpt from A Series of Engravings, Representing the Bones of the Human Skeleton, Vol. 1: With the Skeletons of Some of the Lower Animals Having formed his resolution, and cherishing a wish to produce, at the same time, something that was new, he procured a Work that was very little known, at least to anatomists, in this country, - a compilation, published at Rome in 1696, -by domenico de Rossr, chiefly for the use of sculptors and painters.
