AFW - Antique France Worldwide

Description

Anatomical acupuncture chart of Chinese origin, featuring a large educational board illustrating the human nervous, vascular, and skeletal systems. The main view, centered, shows a human body from the back with precise superimposition of nerves, blood vessels, muscles, and acupuncture points, on a white background. The diagram is complemented by several side boxes detailing the head (lateral view and skull cross-section), the structure of the spine, and an armpit area, including a color photographic detail. The poster is printed with bold colors (red, yellow, blue, flesh) and fine lines for clear readability of anatomical elements and meridian pathways.

Legends are printed directly on the chart, in French and Chinese, associated with each illustration (e.g., "RELATION BETWEEN THE MAIN POINTS OF THE YANGMING, ZU AND ZHI OF THE DIFFERENT SEGMENTS OF THE SPINAL CORD"). The lower right part mentions the publisher "JIANSHI LINGYANG."

The board has an elongated vertical format, with marked horizontal and vertical folds, typical of an original folded educational map or poster. The corners are straight, with no eyelets or visible mounting strips on this side. The paper appears matte with a slightly satiny finish, with no apparent texture.

The general aesthetic, printing style, and typography suggest a production from the second half of the 20th century, often used in schools, medical offices, or for teaching traditional Chinese acupuncture. The iconographic details are typical of vintage wall educational charts, sought after for decoration or study.

The visual indicates neither framing nor apparent hanging system. The poster lies flat on a wooden surface, surrounded by old books, highlighting its educational and decorative character.
