This print shows four large human figures, including a skeleton, a muscle-man derived from Vesalius, and male and female figures (the latter cropped mid-thigh). The main figures are surrounded by 15 smaller details of organs, many of which (arm, liver, ear, etc.) are derived from Remmelin's Catoptrum microcosmicum (Mirror of the microcosm, translated into English under the title of Survey of the microcosme, 1619). The left-most (female) figure is notable for its unusual representation of the gyri of the brain, and a very eccentric representation of the meninges (folded back from the brain like pages in a sample-book).
