Girolamo Mercuriale (1530-1606), alors que le corps avait été quelque peu délaissé par l'occident, s'inspire du principe de Juvénal : Mens sana in corpore sano et nous propose en étudiant les textes de l'antiquité le premier livre de gymnastique. " [.] sa connaissance intéresse tout homme qui professe la médecine, d'autant plus qu'on trouve chez Hippocrate, Platon et Galien l'affirmation répétée à maintes reprises selon laquelle les exercices, si on désire mener une vie saine, procurent des avantages si grands et si nombreux que c'est à peine si les autres ressources de la médecine en procurent autant." (traduction d'une partie du livre III) "Héritier de la tradition galénique, Mercuriale puise dans la littérature grecque et latine, mais aussi chez ses contemporains. Utilisant à la fois son savoir médical et les acquis de l'antiquaria, il rédigea le premier traité de gymnastique de notre histoire, les 6 livres du De Arte Gymnastica" (Jean-Michel Agasse, "Le De arte gymnastica de Girolamo Mercuriale : archéologie et culture du corps à la Renaissance", thèse de doctorat) La planche dépliante est la proposition d'un plan de Gymnase.

Il s'agit probablement de Pierre Marie Maloët (1730-1810) médecin personnel de Mesdames Victoire et Sophie, filles de Louis XV. Il suivit ses protectrices durant leur en exil en Italie en 1791.

Relying heavily on ancient practices, this work is an excellent compendium of the physical therapy of earlier times. Mercuriale describes ancient gymnasia and baths and discusses mild exercises, such as dancing, as well as more strenuous pursuits such as wrestling and boxing. He also gives full consideration to the health benefits of proper exercise and concludes the book with a section of therapeutic exercises"]. ________________________________________________________________ ___________________ ______________________________ENGLISH_DESCRIPTION : Early XIXth century full sheep, spine with four compartments.

Girolamo Mercuriale (1530-1606), when the body had been somewhat neglected by the medieval culture, was inspired by the principle of Juvénal: Mens sana in corpore sano and offers us by studying the texts of antiquity the first book of gymnastic. "[.] its knowledge interests any man who professes medicine, especially since one finds in Hippocrates, Plato and Galen the affirmation repeated over and over again according to which exercises, if one wishes to lead a healthy life, provide benefits so great and so numerous that it is scarcely that the other resources of medicine provide so many. " (translation of part of book III) "Heir to the galenic tradition, Mercuriale draws from Greek and Latin literature, but also from his contemporaries.
