Hi all,

http://www.nlm.nih.gov/exhibition/dreamanatomy/

This is a fun site to poke around. It shows how artists have approached anatomy throughout history (well - starting around 1500), and it has lots and lots of illustrations. It's an exhibit by the U.S. National Library of Medicine. There may be some master copy material in here too.

Yep - a fabulous resource. Don't miss the index of authors here - a few new ones are added each year:

That site is great... lots of interesting images in there.
I always really enjoyed this drawing, ever since I came across a reproduction of it in the library 3 years ago... but I had no idea who Juan Valverde de Amusco was until 5 minutes ago.

Thanks for the link man

This is a fantastic find, thanks for sharing. I saved a bunch of images to do 'master copies' with :).
