Jan l'Admiral’s Anatomische studie van menselijke huid en nagel (Anatomical Study of Human Skin and Nail) is a detailed, illustrative study from 1737 depicting three different sections of human skin. The pieces are numbered and labelled for anatomical identification. This scientific study of the human body is characteristic of the Dutch Golden Age, which prioritized scientific inquiry and advancements. While it is an anatomical study, its artistic composition and the visual detail used to capture the texture of human skin make this a captivating visual experience as well.
