Opened abdominal cavity, with the kidneys
1970
From the collection of Leiden University Libraries
Opened abdominal cavity, with the kidneys is a 1970 by Unknown, depicting Anatomy, held at Leiden University Libraries.
This drawing shows a human belly cut open, kidneys clearly visible. No face or body is shown, just the surgery. The artist used ink and brush to make soft grey shadows around the organs. This isn’t a normal medical drawing. The shading shows depth without color. It feels quiet and careful, like a map of what’s inside us. Look up the Museum of Ethnography if you want to see more drawings like this.
