Max Brödel (June 8, 1870 – October 26, 1941) was a medical illustrator. Born in Leipzig, Germany, he began his artistic career after graduating from the Leipzig Academy of Fine Arts, working for Dr.
Carl Ludwig
. Under Ludwig's instruction, Brödel gained a basic knowledge of medicine and became recognized for his detailed medical illustrations. In the late 1890s, he was brought to the
Johns Hopkins School of Medicine
in Baltimore to illustrate for
Harvey Cushing
,
William Halsted
,
Howard Kelly
, and other notable clinicians. In addition to being a prolific medical illustrator, he developed new artistic techniques such as the
carbon dust technique
that helped the advancement of the quality and accuracy of medical illustrations for physicians. In 1911, he presided over the creation of the first Department of Art as Applied to Medicine; located at the
Johns Hopkins School of Medicine
, it continues to train medical illustrators to this day. His graduates spread out across the world, and have founded a number of
other academic programs
.
