Et vanskabt barn med to hoveder 1558 - 1617

"Et vanskabt barn med to hoveder" is a 16th century engraving by the Dutch artist Hendrick Goltzius. The artwork depicts a two-headed child standing in a front-facing and back-facing posture. The print is a striking example of the fascination with anatomical oddities prevalent in the Renaissance period, and the artist’s masterful use of linework and detail. The image is part of the larger collection at the SMK - Statens Museum for Kunst.
