Join us for this bite sized lunch time talk exploring the history of medicine.

For those travellers doing ‘The Grand Tour’ of Europe in the middle of the eighteenth century, a recommended stop was to see ‘The Lady Anatomist’. Anna Morandi Manzolini made beautiful anatomical models from wax and taught students anatomy. Initially working with her husband, after his death, she carried on her anatomical investigations on her own. She claimed to have dissected over 1,000 cadavers in pursuit of her art, and her work was recognised across Europe, from the Royal Society in London, to Catherine the Great in Russia. This talk by human remains conservator Cat Irving will look at Anna Morandi Manzolini’s life and career as a female anatomist working in the eighteenth century.
