Work from 1861 in the Wellcome Collection

Historical context

The historical source deals with obstetrics. NIFSAC uses it as a starting point for questions about observation, explanations, warning signals and changing unsafe routines. A transfer to today's aesthetic care is justified independently.

Copy and rights

The catalogue note distinguishes two copies and mentions a reduced photocopy in one. Without a specific assignment, it is not claimed to reproduce a specific original physical copy. No scan is embedded on this page.

Bibliographic details and the rights label follow the project briefing; review date: 28 September 2026. The complete sequence of scans has not been reviewed for this website. The rights label applies to the specific catalogue record, not to modern adaptations in general.
