"Dissection of a Horse" is a notable illustration from the work "Cours d'Hippiatrique ou Traité Complet de la Médecine des Chevaux" (Course of Hippology or Complete Treatise on the Medicine of Horses), authored by the French veterinarian Philippe-Étienne Lafosse, also known as Harguinier. This comprehensive guide, published in the 18th century, is a seminal text in the field of veterinary science, particularly concerning the medical treatment and anatomy of horses.

The illustration itself is a detailed anatomical representation of a horse, showcasing the internal structure and organs, and is a testament to the advanced level of veterinary knowledge and illustrative skill of the period. It serves as an educational tool, providing a visual guide for veterinarians, farriers, and horse owners of the time. The work reflects the broader European Enlightenment's emphasis on science, empirical observation, and the systematic categorization of knowledge.

"Cours d'Hippiatrique" is significant not only for its scientific content but also for its historical and artistic value. The dissection illustration is an example of the intricate engravings that were used to communicate complex information before the advent of photography. The precision and detail of the image demonstrate the high level of craftsmanship and the importance of visual aids in the dissemination of scientific knowledge during the era.

As an important historical document, "Dissection of a Horse" provides insight into the evolution of veterinary medicine, the study of equine anatomy, and the educational practices of the time. It remains a subject of interest for historians of science and medicine, as well as for those studying the cultural and intellectual history of the 18th century.
