        Estienne’s 1545 <EM>De dissectione partium corporis</EM> ("On the dissection of the parts of the human body") would have 
        been the first lavishly illustrated anatomy, had publication not been 
        delayed by a lengthy legal dispute with collaborator Étienne de 
        la Rivière. The woodcuts, while imaginative, lack the rigor and 
        detail of Vesalius’s 1543 <EM>De Fabrica</EM>—and unlike <EM>De 
        Fabrica</EM> posed no challenge to the authority of the ancient anatomists. 
        To cut costs, Estienne took some of his illustrations from non-anatomical 
        books, replacing the middle of the woodblock with an insert that depicted 
        the body’s interior.</FONT></blockquote><div style="height: 2px; font-size: 2px; background: #dcdcdc; border-bottom: solid 1px #f5f5f5; margin: 2px 4px;"></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://www.nlm.nih.gov/exhibition/dreamanatomy/da_dream_play.html"><div align="center"><img src="http://content9.clipmarks.com/blog_cache/www.nlm.nih.gov/img/CB036967-A876-41D9-9DA7-54A3213989A3" alt="" /></div></blockquote><div style="height: 2px; font-size: 2px; background: #dcdcdc; border-bottom: solid 1px #f5f5f5; margin: 2px 4px;"></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://www.nlm.nih.gov/exhibition/dreamanatomy/da_dream_play.html"><AREA alt="Dream%20Anatomy"  href="http://www.nlm.nih.gov/exhibition/dreamanatomy/index.html" coords="81%2C80%2C664%2C162" shape="rect"></AREA></blockquote></div><div style="margin: 0px 6px 6px 4px;"><table style="font-size: 11px;border-spacing: 0px;padding: 0px;" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" width="100%"><tr><td style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;">&nbsp;</td><td align="right" style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;width:107px" width="107"><a href="http://clipmarks.com/share/13D26B44-F12C-457C-AAC6-A1A709E7471F/blog/" title="blog or email this clip"><img src="http://content6.clipmarks.com/images/c2b-foot.png" border="0" alt="blog it" width="107" height="17" style="border-width:0px;padding:0px;margin:0px;" /></a></td></tr></table></div></div>
