Summary/Abstract: We see that ontological concepts such as soul, existence, creation, disappearance which are centered on philosophical studies for centuries and the body which the medical science tries to solve directly have been indirect sources to art. In the universe most perfect beings among living creatures, humans and their unique mechanical structure have been tried to be solved by medical science, and the obtained data have also been transferred to art through later times. Thus, linking bridge disciplines established from ancient times on a daily basis. The field of medicine, where scientific advances are always carried up, is one of the areas where science and art interact most. The figurative narratives in the wall paintings can also be regarded as the first anatomical drawings. It is possible to encounter images of visual narratives of medical information in every age. Progression of medical science in every century has made it possible for artists to use medical data in a variety of artistic applications and to make use of these data to differentiate and strengthen the expression of artistic tongues. Among these artistic practices can count painting, photograph and so on.
