Menselijk bot met een afwijking 1836 - 1912

"Menselijk bot met een afwijking" (Human bone with an abnormality) is a detailed anatomical illustration by Dutch artist Isaac Weissenbruch, dating from 1836 to 1912. The black and white drawing meticulously depicts a human bone, likely a leg bone, with an apparent anomaly at the top. The labels, "a," "b," and "ß," highlight the bone's structure and the location of the abnormality. This artwork, now housed at the Rijksmuseum, exemplifies Weissenbruch's skillful rendering of anatomical details, reflecting the scientific curiosity of the 19th century.
