"An Amputation" is a notable woodcut illustration from the "Feldtbuch der Wundartzney" (Field Book of Surgery), a seminal medical text published in 1540. The illustration was created by Hans or Johannes Ulrich Wechtlin, an artist known for his detailed and expressive woodcuts. This particular image is significant for its graphic depiction of a surgical procedure, specifically an amputation, which is presented in a detailed and instructional manner.

The "Feldtbuch der Wundartzney" was authored by Hans von Gersdorff, a German surgeon whose work was influential in the field of surgery during the Renaissance. The book itself is a comprehensive guide on surgical techniques and practices of the time, and it includes numerous illustrations by Wechtlin that serve to visually explain and complement Gersdorff's text.

Wechtlin's illustration, "An Amputation," not only serves a practical purpose in demonstrating surgical procedure but also reflects the medical knowledge and practices of the 16th century. The woodcut is characterized by its attention to detail and its ability to convey the complexities of surgical operations to a broader audience, making it an important work in the history of medical illustrations.
