EDITORS COMMENTS
This wood engraving, published in 1880, offers a detailed glimpse into the intricate anatomy of the human ear. The print showcases various components of this remarkable sensory organ, providing an invaluable resource for understanding its structure and function. Starting from the outermost part, we see the auricle (A), which acts as a funnel to collect sound waves. Moving inward, we encounter the external auditory canal (B) leading to the tympanic membrane (C), commonly known as the eardrum. This delicate membrane separates the outer ear from the middle ear. Within the middle ear lies an array of vital structures depicted in this engraving: The tympanic cavity (D), malleus (E), incus (M), and cochlea (H). These elements work harmoniously to transmit sound vibrations from air to fluid-filled chambers within our inner ears. The semicircular canals (G) are also visible in this illustration, responsible for maintaining balance and spatial orientation. Lastly, we observe the Eustachian tube (I), connecting our ears with our throat and playing a crucial role in equalizing pressure between our middle ears and atmospheric conditions. This historic artwork not only serves as a testament to scientific advancements during that era but also highlights humanity's enduring fascination with unraveling nature's mysteries. It invites us to appreciate both artistry and knowledge by capturing a moment frozen in time – forever preserving our understanding of one of life's most extraordinary senses.
