At the center of this plate is a reproduction of Enrique Simonet's Autopsy, below which is written L'Anatomie du Coeur. Here the medical examiner is seen observing the heart presumably removed from the woman on the gurney in front of him. A note on the reverse side of the bookplate indicates that it was never used.
