Undefined tissue
1970
From the collection of Leiden University Libraries
Undefined tissue is a 1970 by Unknown, depicting Anatomy, held at Leiden University Libraries.
This drawing shows two hands clasped together, wrapped around a rough, blocky shape. The hands look real, with clear fingers and knuckles, but the object they hold is strange—almost like a chunk of stone or bone. The whole scene is in shades of gray, with careful lines marking every fold of skin and edge of the shape. The artist focused on how the hands grip the object, making it look heavy. The drawing feels precise, like it’s studying something unusual up close. If you like this kind of detailed, almost scientific drawing, look up cross-hatching.
