Anatomical Model

ca 1830

During the 19th century, Paris replaced Italy as the major producer of wax anatomical models. An important workshop was that established by Pierre Vasseur at 9, Rue de l'Ecole de Médecine. In 1878, Vasseur was joined by his son‐in‐law Gustave Tramond (1846–1905), who was later awarded a Chevalier de la Légion d'Honneur. Tramond made this model of a cancer of the tongue.
