Charles-Ange Boily published a book about drawing titled Dessein with 2 double page plates and 10 single page plates in 1763. I am not entirely sure, but I think this was part of the Encyclopédie, ou, Dictionnaire universel raisonné des connoissances humaines By Denis Diderot, Fortuné Barthélemy de Félice.
These illustrations derive from Gerard Audran's work.
These figures might derive from Berardino Genga. Link to more images at the University of Kansas Medical Center site. Blog site with more images.
The skeletons derive from Vesalius.
