EDITORS COMMENTS
This print, titled "Sectioned skull in profile to left with the left side of the cranium removed, 1651" takes us back to the 17th century and offers a glimpse into the world of anatomy. Created by Wenceslaus Hollar, a Bohemian artist known for his meticulous etchings, this piece showcases his exceptional attention to detail. The image depicts a sectioned skull viewed from its left profile, revealing the intricate structure hidden beneath our skin. The removal of the left side of the cranium exposes an array of bones that form this essential part of our body. With Leonardo da Vinci's influence evident in Hollar's work, we can appreciate how art and science intertwine seamlessly. As we observe this morbid yet fascinating artwork, it reminds us of our mortality and invites contemplation on life's impermanence. The stark contrast between black and white emphasizes both beauty and fragility within human existence. Currently housed at The Metropolitan Museum of Art, this print serves as a testament to Hollar's skillful craftsmanship while preserving knowledge about anatomical studies during that era. It stands as a tribute to scientific exploration through artistry—a window into history where curiosity meets creativity.
