The Epitome was a companion piece to the Seven books on the fabric of the human body (commonly known as the Fabrica, both published in 1543 in Basel and authored by Andreas Vesalius (1514-1564). The Fabrica is well-known for its rich variety of woodcuts that embodied Vesalius’s call to establish anatomical knowledge by means of first-hand dissection, following the example of Galen. From its title, the accompanying Epitome might sound like a shorter edition of the Fabrica – indeed it has the same woodcut frontispiece – but it is also a very unusual book.https://cudl.lib.cam.ac.uk/https://exhibitions.lib.cam.ac.uk/
