Deep abdominal organs, 1880 artwork C017 / 6913
Deep abdominal organs. Historical anatomical artwork of a dissected abdomen seen from the front, showing the deep-seated organs and major blood vessels after the removal of the intestines and stomach. The organs revealed include the pancreas (top) and the kidneys (below pancreas). The abdominal sections of the vena cava (main vein) and aorta (main artery) divide in the groin into iliac branches for the legs. The bones visible are those of the pelvis and the hips, including the upper parts of the femurs (thigh bones). This artwork dates from around 1880

EDITORS COMMENTS
This artwork from 1880 offers a mesmerizing glimpse into the intricate world of deep abdominal organs. With meticulous detail, it showcases a dissected abdomen seen from the front, revealing the hidden treasures within. The removal of intestines and stomach allows us to marvel at the pancreas, positioned elegantly on top, and the kidneys resting below. As our eyes wander further, we encounter two vital lifelines: the abdominal sections of the vena cava and aorta. These main blood vessels gracefully divide in the groin area into iliac branches that extend down to nourish our legs. The presence of these arteries and veins reminds us of their crucial role in maintaining our overall well-being. The skeletal framework becomes apparent as we explore this masterpiece further. The bones visible include those of the pelvis and hips, along with upper portions of femurs or thigh bones. This addition adds another layer to understanding how these deep-seated organs interact harmoniously with our musculoskeletal system. Dating back over a century ago, this historical anatomical artwork serves as an invaluable resource for studying human anatomy throughout history. Its monochrome aesthetic exudes an air of timelessness while preserving its scientific significance.
