Engraving of the brain by Charles Bell
(Click to enlarge)
In the Brain the appearance is so peculiar, and so little capable of illustration from other parts of the body, the surfaces are so soft, and so easily destroyed by rude dissection, and it is so difficult to follow an abstract description merely, that this part of Anatomy cannot be studied without the help of Engravings.
One of 12 full-page engravings from The Anatomy of the Brain Explained in a Series of Engravings, by Charles Bell (1802).
