Anatomy: At the Crossroads of History, Art, and Science

Long before dissection became a scientific practice, the first manifestations of Anatomy were already present in cave paintings, where hunters depicted animal organs and structures with astonishing detail. The word Anatomy, derived from the Greek anatomein (“to cut into parts”), reflects this ancient practice of observing the body. But more than that, Anatomy is also art, culture, and history. The anatomist, like an artist, uses their “brushes” — scalpels, forceps, and spatulas — to reveal the internal forms of life, with precision and respect. Veterinary Anatomy bridges scientific knowledge, aesthetic expression, and collective memory, serving simultaneously as a teaching tool, a subject of research, and an expression of care for animals. Thus, we affirm that Anatomy is also memory and heritage: it is science that investigates, art that expresses, and history that preserves.
