There were numerous memorials dedicated to the physician Giulio Cesare Aranzi (1530?-1589), who was well-known at the time for the dissections that he practiced at the Anatomical Theatre, and for his study of the physiology of childbirth and of the anatomy of the female reproductive system. He was the first to hold the chair of anatomy at the University of Bologna (in 1570).
This is the first memorial of the Archiginnasio (1564), and it became the prototype for the following ones.
