Two somites of a mouse is a 1970 unspecified by J Wetselaar-Whittaker, held at Leiden University Libraries.
This watercolor shows two tiny, pink mouse embryos side by side. Their shapes look soft and delicate. It’s part of early science work where artists drew tiny things by hand. The artist used thin washes of green and orange to highlight the embryos. If you like this careful style, check out the artist’s other work at the Museum of Ethnography.
This artist made precise studies of the body—drawings and sculptures that cut straight to the bones, muscles, and tissues.
