Bones Books and Bell Jars is a book of photographs by Andrea Baldeck of the Mütter Museum Collection.

About the book:

Bones Books & Bell Jars offers a contemporary fusion of art and medicine, recalling an era when artists and physicians collaborated to educate aspiring medical students and share information with other medical practitioners. Andrea Baldeck was given free rein to mine Philadelphia’s Mütter Museum’s vast collection of pathological specimens, anatomical models, surgical instruments, illustrated textbooks and other 19th century artifacts, to create her “cabinet of wonders” inspired still life photographs.
