If you spot an error, have a suggestion, or just want to say hello — we’d love to hear from you.

To you, therefore (Most High Prince), I most humbly dedicate and consecrate these icons of all the muscles, delineated and expressed by a new method (as if they were so many votive tablets for your most desired life, first liberated from the waves, and then from the foul rage of schismatics, by the auspices of the Supreme Deity).

We judge these icons of all the muscles in the Human Body, graphically and newly delineated by Mr. Joannes Browne, Surgeon-in-Ordinary to the most Serene King of Britain and to the Royal Hospital (which is called St. Thomas's), to be worthy of reading, both for the praise of the most skilled Author and for the benefit of the literary Republic, if they are given to the public Light.
