Review over Andreus Vesalius’ De Humani Corporis Fabrica

Looking through this book, it was very interesting to see how the text was dispersed with sketches of skulls and human bodies. The book seemed to flow well and appeared to be well thought out in regards to design. There was contrast between the text of the book and the title of the pages. Squares of drawings and drawings of the human body were repeated throughout the book, and the entire book was center aligned. The drawings were grouped together along with text all placed together on the pages. The author of the book made sure to include incredibly detailed drawings of the human body and information that was radical for the 1500’s.
