Vintage School Board "Muscle of Man", Germany, 1950s

Large-scale vintage German anatomical school chart depicting the muscular system of the human body. Produced in Germany in the 1950s, this wall-hanging educational board was designed for use in schools, medical institutions, and universities to illustrate the muscles of the human figure in remarkable detail.

The chart features a full-body front-facing anatomical illustration rendered in rich red and ochre tones, with numbered reference points along both sides identifying individual muscle groups. The figure is shown in a dynamic pose, conveying depth and dimension. The print is mounted on original wooden dowel rods with black end caps, complete with a hanging cord, making it ready to display immediately.

A rare and impressive piece of scientific and design history, equally at home in a medical practice, studio, library, or as a statement artwork in an interior setting.
