This curiosity was probably not used as an actual teaching tool to illustrate medical facts.
"Rather, it is a typical Kunstkammer object, combining high-quality ivory sculpting with vanitas symbolism, eroticism, and medical contemplation."
Often enclosed an accompanying book with explanations of each organ.

- Generally in good condition with minimal signs of use due to age, such as superficial soiling and minimal rubbing. - A small wooden strip missing from the front of the box.
