Anatomy of Masterpieces. What a Doctor Sees Where Others See Only Art

Anatomy of Masterpieces. What a Doctor Sees Where Others See Only Art

The book by Professor Lee Jeho, «Anatomy of Masterpieces» — is an amazing experiment that will forever change your perspective on world art.

Imagine: you are standing in front of a world-famous painting in a museum. You admire the plot, the... play of colors, the skill of the artist... But what if there is another, medical narrative hidden behind it? A history of illness encrypted in the model's pose, or an anatomical accuracy to be envied?

The book «Anatomy of Masterpieces» by Professor Lee Jeho is your ticket to a completely new dimension of art. The author conducts a kind of «autopsy» of famous paintings and sculptures to show:
- Hidden diagnoses: what diseases and syndromes can be discerned in the characters of the paintings by old masters?
- Genius accuracy: how did artists of the distant past manage to convey the complex structure of the human body with photographic precision?
- Anatomical blunders: where did the great creators allow themselves to make mistakes?
