kaibo zonshinzu anatomy scrolls

I stumbled across these very grusome anatomy scrolls painted in 1819 by Kyoto-area physician Yasukazu Minagaki. So they are old, but none the less important. They are really quite interesting as they depict the bodies in pain, as if they were alive when the autopsy began. And considering the practices that occurred back then, who’s to say that it didn’t happen that way.

I figured this would be good to share, considering the morbidity levels of some of my friends and family. If you think that you fit into this category then check out all of the scroll’s pictures shown on Pink Tentacle.
