	Frederik Ruysch (www.whonamedit.com)
		Frederik Ruysch was the son of Hendrik Ruysch, a secretary in the service of the state, and Anna van Berchem.
		Ruysch's main interest was anatomy, for which he had had a passion since his youth, when he would ask grave diggers to open graves so that he could make anatomical investigations.
		In 1679 Ruysch was appointed Doctor van t’geregte — Medicus forensis - doctor of the court of justice, and on March 24, 1685, he was appointed professor of botany at the Athenaeum Illustre and thus became supervisor of the botanical garden.

	Resurrecting death: anatomical art in the cabinet of Dr. Frederik Ruysch. - Encyclopedia.com
		Ruysch apparently was the most active municipal anatomist in Amsterdam's history, conducting some thirty-one public sessions before his death at the age of ninety-two.
		Although Ruysch published an important treatise on the valves in the lymphatic vessels, his major contribution to anatomy was in mastering new embalming techniques for his collection of preserved anatomical material.
		Ruysch's reliance on children's bodies may have been dictated by necessity, since he would never have been able to accumulate large numbers of adult remains because of the civic regulations.(37) However, the tiny bodies of infants also made an aesthetic statement.

		The story of archiving the soft tissues of the human body must begin with Frederik Ruysch, chief anatomist for the city of Amsterdam in the mid-seventeenth century and the first person to perfect a method for preserving soft tissue.
		Ruysch’s collection was dominated by memento mori: the preserved bodies of infants, stillborn but perfect, purchased from the midwives whose work he supervised in his official capacity as Amsterdam’s Master of Midwives (Kidd and Modlin, 1999; Hansen, 1996).
		Although Ruysch’s celebrated technical mastery of the art of anatomical injecting enabled him to make wonderful observations of the human brain, no preserved specimens of the brain made it into the catalogue of his cabinet.

		Ruysch found a unique answer: he used insect larvae, which destroyed the soft parts of the injected organs, but did not harm the vessels filled with the hard, colored wax.
		Although today Ruysch is known primarily as a brilliant anatomist and the author of numerous masterpieces of preparation in normal, pathalogical and comparativ e anatomy, in his own time, Ruysch was esteemed most of all for his skill in the art of embalming.

		Although Ruysch published an important treatise on the valves in the lymphatic vessels, his major contribution to anatomy was in mastering new embalming techniques for his collection of preserved anatomical material.
		Ruysch, however, was never formally attached to a university as a Professor of Anatomy; his writings never reached the wide audiences attained by University of Leiden professors Herman Boerhaave and Govart Bidloo.
		Ruysch did have some adult remains in his collection, but typically they were autopsied examples of certain types of medical problems or illness; e.g., one of the Amsterdam surgeon Gerrit Borst's specimens of hip fractures ended up in Ruysch's collection.

		Frederik Ruysch, praelector in Anatomy in Amsterdam, assembled a large series of emblematic landscapes in jars, using the anatomized skeletons of children as his artistic material.
		Attached to the delicate phalanges, or hanging from them, were mayflies, strings of pearls, small candles, a wreath of flowers, or star-shaped melon seeds, all symbolizing the brevity of life, which was also the subject of the text.
		Later groups of figures included birds perched on vascular trees, a skeleton playing a violin made from an osteomyelitic sequester and 'behind a handsome vase made of the inflated tunica albuginea of the testis...an elegant little skeleton with a feather on its skull and a stone coughed up from the lungs hanging from its hand'.

	Ruysch's anatomical curiosities
		Objects which produce a sense of wonderment for their rarity, or for their curious unfamiliarity, will probably always be a source of intrigue and inquiry.
		Ruysch discovered the recipe for a special coloured substance that, when injected into human organs, revealed the journeys taken by the blood vessels through the lymphatic system.
		Clearly, Ruysch was as much an expert showman as he was a scientist.
