Cross section of the pelvis is a 1970 by J Wetselaar-Whittaker, depicting Anatomy, held at Leiden University Libraries.
This drawing shows a cut-open view of a human pelvis. You can see the bones, muscles, and some organs inside, all drawn in shades of gray and white. The lines are careful and precise, marking every fold and shape. The artist focused on detail, using shading to show depth. This kind of drawing was likely used for study or teaching. Next, look up cross-hatching to see how artists create shading with lines.
This artist made precise studies of the body—drawings and sculptures that cut straight to the bones, muscles, and tissues.
