This print showcases a remarkable piece of history - the surgical instruments depicted in the manuscript of Al-Tasrif (The Method of Medicine) by Abulcasis. Created around 1213-1223, this manuscript is a testament to the advancements made in medicine during the Middle Ages. Intricately detailed and beautifully illuminated, this image transports us back to an era where surgery was both an art and a science. The assortment of tools displayed here reveals the ingenuity and precision required for successful surgical procedures.

This manuscript serves as a window into their world, offering insights into anatomy, surgical procedures, and medical knowledge that were ahead of their time. The vibrant watercolors and delicate ink strokes bring these instruments to life on paper. Each brushstroke seems to whisper stories from centuries past - tales of skilled surgeons working diligently in anatomical theaters across medieval Europe. Preserved within the collection of Bibliotheque Nationale du Royaume du Maroc in Rabat, Morocco, this precious artifact stands as a testament to human curiosity and our unending quest for understanding the intricacies of our own bodies.
