"Apoplexy of the Heart and of the Lungs" is an illustration plate from the medical atlas "Anatomie pathologique du corps humain" (Pathological Anatomy of the Human Body), which was a significant work in the field of medical illustration during the 19th century. The atlas, authored by French physician Jean Baptiste Marc Bourgery and illustrated by artist Antoine Chazal, was published in multiple volumes between 1826 and 1847. This particular plate is one of the many detailed illustrations within the atlas that depict various aspects of human anatomy and pathology.

The illustration "Apoplexy of the Heart and of the Lungs" specifically portrays the pathological conditions of heart and lung apoplexy, which refer to the sudden impairment of these organs due to internal bleeding or blockage. In the context of the heart, apoplexy could be related to what is now understood as a myocardial infarction or heart attack, while pulmonary apoplexy could be associated with conditions such as pulmonary embolism or hemorrhage.

Antoine Chazal's work on the atlas is renowned for its accuracy and artistic quality, contributing to the understanding of human pathology during a time when medical imaging technology was non-existent. The illustrations served as an educational tool for medical students and professionals, providing visual representations of diseases and their effects on the human body.

The "Anatomie pathologique du corps humain" stands as a testament to the collaboration between science and art, with Chazal's plates being particularly praised for their contribution to medical knowledge and education. "Apoplexy of the Heart and of the Lungs" exemplifies the detailed work that went into creating this atlas and remains a valuable historical document in the study of medical illustration and pathology.
