"The human eye carefully dissected: its cross-section, its nerves, its iris with astonishing detail. An anatomical plate of striking plastic beauty."

Context of the work

This plate is taken from a large 19th-century atlas of anatomy or ophthalmology. At that time, scientific illustration was an art in itself: engravers were artists as much as technicians.

The symmetry of the composition - two mirror-image eyes, surrounded by their nervous structures - creates an almost abstract graphic effect.

Why are 19th-century anatomical plates considered art?

At that time, the engravers who created these scientific plates were artists as much as technicians, capable of representing structures invisible to the naked eye with precision and almost abstract symmetry.

Which format should I choose for this reproduction?

This reproduction is available in 30 x 40 cm, 40 x 50 cm, and 50 x 70 cm. The 30 x 40 cm is suitable for a hallway, office, or gallery wall; the 50 x 70 cm can stand alone above a sofa or bed. The frame is not included, the sizes are standard and can be found commercially.

Beautiful images deserve beautiful paper

The paper is an uncoated matte 170 gsm. Its surface stays slightly fibrous, the ink sinks in, the light spreads across it. Colors keep their depth, as on the page of a book.

It is FSC certified, so it comes from sustainably managed forests, and printed as close to you as possible to shorten transport.

Hanging a piece is not the same as seeing it once. It stays there, you find it again in passing, and the day pauses for a second. It is a moment you give yourself, and offer to those who live with you.
