This wall chart details a diagram of the brain in coordination with the spinal cord. According to the description plate, translated from German, it depicts "schematic representation of the course of the pyramids--pathway and major pathways of sensitivity in the brain and spinal cord." Considering this print was made in 1928, it's an impressive understanding of the workings of the human body. It also represents what was known about the human body in the early 20th century.
This print comes from a collection of Neurological Wall Charts published by J.F. Lehmann, in Munich. Lehmann was a well-known publisher of medical literature. Large-scale and highly detailed works like this print were widely distributed throughout Germany for use in medical schools, doctors offices, and other institututions.
