Science Art: Tabula XXIII: De humeri fracti compositioni & luxationem cubiti, humeri, ac femoris restitutioni, from Armamentum chirurgicum, by D. Joannis Sculteti, 1656

TabulaXXIIIarmamentumchirurgica

A 17th-century guide to leg surgery. Unfortunately, my Latin’s not what it could be, so I can’t tell exactly what Dr. Joannis Sculteti is recommending we do here. I can tell, however, that it doesn’t really look all that comfortable.
