Highlights from the illustrations in the 1665 edition of Fortunio Liceti's De Monstris, originally published, without the illustrations, in 1616.

In the wake of the book there was a huge rise in interest throughout Europe in 'monstrosities': pygmies, supposed mermaids, deformed fetuses, and other natural marvels were put on display and widely discussed, becoming the circus freak-shows of their time. However, unlike many of his contemporaries Licenti did not see deformity as something negative, as the result of errors
