Wellcome MS 349, fol. 22r

Commentary
Wellcome MS 349, fol. 22r

In this late 15th-century version, the zodiac signs float in bubbles surrounding the central figure and are attached to the relevant part of the body by a rope. Unlike the other depictions of the zodiac figure in this unit, this one has been dissected and presents his organs to the viewer. 

The manuscript contains the Ars compustica by Heymandus de Veteri Busci, as well as some astrological and divinatory material.
