Abstract
Originally published in (Vita Caesarum) cum Philippi Beroaldi et Marci Antonii Sabellici commentariis. Cum fi gures nuper additis. Venetiis, per Ioannem Rubeum. 1506. These images were taken while preparing a book (Wombs with a View, Springer, 2016) on the history of the illustrations and how they contributed to our understanding of anatomy and physiology of pregnancy, thereby enabling advances in the practice of obstetrics and gynecology.
