"Apparatus for healing arm fractures, illustration from the Feldtbuch der Wundartzney" is a notable historical illustration by Hans or Johannes Ulrich Wechtlin, a German Renaissance artist known for his woodcuts. Created circa 1540, this work is part of the "Feldtbuch der Wundartzney" (Field Book of Surgery), a seminal medical text by the German surgeon Hans von Gersdorff. The illustration depicts a mechanical device designed to treat and heal arm fractures, reflecting the medical knowledge and practices of the early 16th century.

Wechtlin's woodcut is a significant artifact of medical history, providing insight into the surgical techniques and tools of the Renaissance period. The "Feldtbuch der Wundartzney" served as a practical guide for barber-surgeons, military medics, and physicians of the time, and Wechtlin's illustrations played a crucial role in conveying complex medical procedures to a wider audience. The detailed representation of the apparatus in this illustration not only demonstrates Wechtlin's skill as an artist but also highlights the innovative approach to medical treatment during an era when such knowledge was primarily disseminated through text and image.

The illustration stands as a testament to the collaboration between art and science, showcasing how visual aids were essential in the advancement of medical understanding. It remains an important reference for historians of medicine and art, offering a window into the intersection of healthcare and craftsmanship in the Renaissance.
