Jacques Gamelin, "Nouveau d'ostéologie", 1779

Table 33, "Nouveau receuil d'ostéologie et de myologie" ("A New Collection of Bones and Muscles"), 1779. Jacques Gamelin (October 3, 1738 - October 12, 1803) was a French painter. After receiving an education from the Jesuits, he went into the service of baron de Puymaurin, in order to learn the ways of business. Puymaurin quickly saw that his young assistant had little talent or interest in business but showed great promise as an artist. After five years study, at the Académie royale, he won the Académie's first prize and he went to Paris to continue his studies. Gamelin later went to Rome and eventually became a painter to Pope Clement XIV. On the death of his father, which left Jacques a wealthy man, he returned to Toulouse where he taught at the Académie and began his great work, Nouveau receuil d'ostéologie et de myologie. The work is known for its display of both talent and imagination, with striking scenes of the Resurrection, the Crucifixion, and skeletons at play. Aside from the full-page copperplate illustrations by Gamelin and the engraver Lavalée, the work contains a number of intriguing vignettes on the title pages and elsewhere, which show battle scenes, visitations by death on unsuspecting revelers, and the anatomical artist's studio. He died in 1803 at the age of 65.
