Myotomia reformata: or an anatomical treatise on the muscles of the human body

This sumptuous folio with engravings after Rubens and Raphael and an ingenious set of historiated initials ranks among the most artistic anatomical atlases of the period. Cowper worked until his death on this new edition. It was published posthumously under the supervision and at the expense of Richard Mead (1673-1754).
