EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a plate from the unpublished 'Atlas Anatomico', dating back to the late 17th century. Created by the talented artist Crisostomo Martinez, this piece was printed in 1740, bridging two centuries of artistic excellence. The plate itself is an intricate etching that depicts the human body in astonishing detail. Every bone, muscle, and proportion is meticulously captured, revealing Martinez's deep understanding of anatomy. The male figure featured in this artwork stands as a testament to both scientific knowledge and artistic skill. As we gaze upon this ancient masterpiece, we are transported back in time to an era when anatomical studies were at their peak. It serves as a reminder of humanity's ceaseless quest for knowledge and our fascination with unraveling the mysteries of our own bodies. The Metropolitan Museum of Art proudly houses this remarkable artifact within its collection, preserving it for generations to come. Through this photograph print by Crisostomo Martinez y Sorli, we can now appreciate his genius even if we cannot witness the original plate firsthand. This image not only celebrates art but also pays homage to science and discovery. It reminds us that beauty can be found not only on canvas but also within our very beings – a true testament to the wonders of creation.
