[Anatomy. Etnography] Unterhaltungen über den Menschen

Von seinem Körper und dessen Theilen und ihren Functionen insbesondere. Drie delen, Augsburg, 1805. [Gottlieb Tobias Wilhelm]. 2x the second volume; indentical in terms of text, but the hand-coloured and folding copperplates belong in one instance to volume one and in another to volume two. The third volume complete with all hand-coloured and folding copperplates.

3x small 8vo. 2x frontispiece: Der Genius der Menschheit löscht die Fackel aus, and 1x frontispiece: Der entfesselte Geist kehrt zu seinem ewigen Urheber, der Staub zum Staube zurück by J. Mettenleiter and G.J. Laminit. All three bindings shabby and with small damage. Altogether with 193 hand-coloured copperplates, meticulously engraved and coloured. All folding engravings viewable outside the text. These independent volumes (in first edition) belong to the overview work by Wilhelm in 27 volumes: Unterhaltung aus der Naturgeschichte. (total 3)
