A black and white etching of an abstract circular shape with radiating lines on a square piece of paper, which is centered on a larger white sheet. The circular shape appears to have a textured, dark center with lighter etched lines suggesting movement or energy emanating from the core. The artwork has a rough, expressive quality, and there's a signature in the upper right corner on the larger white sheet.

A black and white etching of an abstract circular shape with radiating lines on a square piece of paper, which is centered on a larger white sheet. The circular shape appears to have a textured, dark center with lighter etched lines suggesting movement or energy emanating from the core. The artwork has a rough, expressive quality, and there's a signature in the upper right corner on the larger white sheet.
A print featuring two separate images on a white background: the top image is a dark circular etching with concentric patterns, resembling a fossil or geological formation; the bottom image is a grayscale X-ray of a human skull viewed from the front. Both are centered on their respective halves of the print, with the artist's signature in the top right corner.
A piece of artwork featuring two distinct images on a white background. The larger image at the top is abstract, with a dark circular form that appears to be swirling against a mottled backdrop. Below it, a smaller, more detailed image shows a side profile of a human skull with an exaggerated cranial vault, reminiscent of a medical illustration or an X-ray image. The overall composition is stark and evocative, with a signature in the top right corner.
A monochromatic artwork featuring two separate images on a white background. The larger image at the top is a dark, abstract representation of a flower with prominent petals surrounding a central disc. Below it, a smaller image depicts a radiograph-like view of a human torso, showing the ribcage and spine in a translucent, ghostly manner. Both images exhibit a raw, etching quality and are positioned centrally on the paper with ample blank space around them.
A print featuring two separate images on a white background: the larger top image shows a textured sphere with a complex pattern of interlocking lines, resembling a network or mesh, set against a dark, rough background. Below it, a smaller image depicts a pair of hands gently holding a transparent, empty glass jar. Both images have a grainy, monochromatic appearance, suggesting an etching or lithograph technique.
A piece of artwork featuring two square images on a white background. The larger square at the top displays a pattern of black speckles and dots scattered across a beige surface. Below and to the right, a smaller square shows a grayscale image of a human ribcage with a striped pattern overlay. The artist's signature is visible in the top right corner of the white background.
An artwork featuring two framed pieces on a white background. The top frame contains an abstract figure resembling a teddy bear with circular patterns, while the bottom frame shows a grayscale image of a human nose and mouth.
A print featuring two separate images on a white background: the top image is an abstract circular pattern with numerous black dots, and the bottom image is a grayscale depiction of a human leg bone structure, possibly an X-ray.
A vintage scientific composite image featuring two separate prints on a white background. The top print shows a square plate with symmetrical patterns of dots radiating from two central, interconnected circular shapes, resembling a geometric diagram or a scientific illustration. The bottom print is a smaller, detailed X-ray image of a human elbow joint, showcasing the bones and their connection. The overall presentation suggests a study or comparison of patterns in nature and human anatomy.
An artwork featuring two geometric patterns resembling honeycombs at the top and an X-ray image of a human hand at the bottom, all against a plain background.
