This photo print, titled "Cephalopoda" takes us back in time to the year 1868. The intricate wood engraving showcases three fascinating aspects of cephalopods, shedding light on their mysterious world beneath the waves. In the upper left corner (A), we are introduced to Hectocotylus, one of the arms possessed by male cephalopods. This specialized arm plays a crucial role in reproduction and is adorned with unique structures that aid in transferring spermatozoa. Moving to the right (B), our attention is drawn towards a male Paper Nautilus, scientifically known as Argonauta. Its delicate shell resembling a paper boat stands out against its graceful tentacles. This enchanting creature has long captivated marine enthusiasts with its ethereal beauty. Finally, at the bottom (C), we encounter an intriguing phenomenon called Spermatophore – a capsule or mass containing spermatozoa produced by males across various animal species. This illustration provides us with a glimpse into this reproductive strategy employed by certain cephalopods. The meticulous details captured through wood engraving transport us back over 150 years ago when scientific exploration was flourishing. Through this artwork by ZU_09, we gain insight into these enigmatic creatures' anatomy and behavior while appreciating the skillful craftsmanship involved in creating such an exquisite print. Whether you are fascinated by sea life or simply appreciate engraved artistry, this historical piece offers both aesthetic pleasure and
