Description:
This plate shows the human venous system; it is derived from page 368 of Vesalius (see Geminus 1552:image ai0063). The plate was later altered and the text of the legend expanded [see record 214 Geminus, 1552]. The veins were regarded as branches of the vena cava and as proceeding from the centre outwards and carrying blood from the centre for the nutrition of the periphery. This view persisted until the circulation of the blood was discovered and the continuity of arteries and veins in the periphery via capillaries was first suspected then demonstrated.
