The autopcy room

A room used by medical students many moons ago at Uppsala University, Sweden, for performing autopcies. The natural light coming in from the windows meant there was no need for candles to light up the room. However when I took the picture it was getting dark.

  3. It's a very very old room, and is not used anymore. But you see people used to e invited to watch, scientists, students, and leading aristocracy. There were seats all the way up to the ceiling.
