Hunter écorchéDescription
William Hunter waited for the hanged corpses of criminals to reach rigor mortis and then selected the most appropriate to create models for anatomic study. Michael Spang then made a wax model of one of those corpses followed by Edward Burch's creation of this bronze écorché.
A similar model is now at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York, pictured below.Dimensions
