"The Wounded Man" (Der verwundete Mann) is a notable woodcut illustration from the early 16th century, attributed to Hieronymus Brunschwig, a German physician and surgeon known for his works in the field of medicine. This illustration is particularly famous for its detailed depiction of various injuries a person might sustain and the corresponding treatments, reflecting the medical knowledge and practices of the time. It was included in Brunschwig's surgical textbook "Buch der Cirurgia: Hantwirckung der Wundartzny" (Book of Surgery: The Craft of the Wound Doctor), first published in 1497.

The woodcut serves as a visual guide to trauma surgery and is considered an important historical document in the history of medical illustration. It portrays a male figure with multiple injuries, each labeled with letters that correspond to descriptions in the text, explaining the nature of the injuries and recommended treatments. The injuries range from cuts and lacerations to broken bones and gunshot wounds, indicating the types of trauma commonly encountered during Brunschwig's era, which was marked by frequent warfare and violence.

The work of Hieronymus Brunschwig, including "The Wounded Man," is significant for its contribution to the understanding of surgical practices in the late Middle Ages and the Renaissance. It provides insight into the evolution of medical knowledge and the transition from a largely theoretical approach to a more empirical and practice-based understanding of surgery and wound care. "The Wounded Man" remains a subject of interest for historians of medicine, art historians, and scholars studying the development of medical education and the dissemination of medical knowledge through early printed books.
