"Ms Hunter 658 Plate XII Drawing for William Hunter's (1718-83) Anatomy of the Human Gravid Uterus, 1774" is a significant historical artwork by the Dutch artist Jan van Rymsdyk. This drawing is one of a series of anatomical studies created for the pioneering medical work "The Anatomy of the Human Gravid Uterus Exhibited in Figures," published in 1774 by the Scottish anatomist William Hunter. The plate is an intricate depiction of a dissection showing the pregnant human uterus, providing a detailed and accurate representation of the anatomy of a gravid (pregnant) female at a time when such studies were groundbreaking.

Jan van Rymsdyk, an artist skilled in medical illustration, was commissioned by William Hunter to produce drawings that would accompany Hunter's text, aiming to enhance the understanding of obstetrics and the reproductive process. The collaboration between Hunter and van Rymsdyk was instrumental in producing one of the most comprehensive and anatomically precise studies of its time, contributing significantly to the fields of medicine and obstetrics.

Plate XII is particularly notable for its meticulous detail and the clarity with which it presents the anatomical structures. The drawing reflects the scientific and artistic standards of the 18th century, combining aesthetic qualities with empirical observation, which was a hallmark of the Enlightenment period. The work of van Rymsdyk, including this plate, is considered an important part of medical history and art history, as it bridges the gap between two disciplines that are often viewed as separate.

The original drawing, along with the entire collection of plates for Hunter's atlas, is held in the archives of the University of Glasgow, where William Hunter was a professor. These plates not only serve as historical documents but also as examples of the artistry involved in medical illustration, a field that requires both technical skill and a deep understanding of human anatomy.
