If you like looking at medicine art, you'll love this new exposition site that looks at all nuances of the human heart. Hosted on the Wellcome Collection site, which is a London based organization that brings to life the vision of Sir Henry Wellcome, this new heart exposition is a Flash montage of various small stories all related to the human heart.
But remember, spare enough time to get lost in the montage!
This is part of a continuous series of posts in which I will explore the fascinating relation between medicine and art. Most of these posts will contain plenty of links to resources with more info, and as far as possible, I'll try to include visual content as well.
We'll start by exploring a little known facet of Aristotle's personality -- it's not a very well known fact that Aristotle was a anatomist -- his philosophical attributes often overshadow his other capabilities.
Aristotle has been credited as being the first anatomist although none of his anatomical drawings and biological work has survived. He drew the distinction between nerves and tendons -- and explored the relations between organs quite accurately.
