I was at the Teatro Anatomico (Anatomical Theatre) today! There's so much to say about it but we'll just concentrate on the ceiling right now. It was built in 1645 by Antonio Levanti. We have Apollo, the protector of medicine, in the centre and he's surrounded by 14 other constellations. Back in the day consulting the heavens was a pretty normal part of medicine. You know, mercury is in retrograde so we should amputate that toe.
Astrology and medicine were intertwined and every part of the body was associated with an astrological sign. The ceiling was a representation of the medicine of the time and also how the human body and the heavens above were intrinsically linked.
Also, huge thank you to the Arabic world and the Middle East because without their knowledge, ancient science and wisdom - we would not have modern medicine! ✨
This photo was taken from on top of the slab/operating table in the middle of the room.

In addition to liking to photo street art, I enjoy #ceiling shots looking up with my iPhone 11 on the ground and controlling the shutter with my Apple Watch. ‎⁨Johanneskirken⁩ (St John's Church), ⁨#Bergen⁩, ⁨Vestland⁩, ⁨Norway⁩ 2024
