A print featuring two separate images on a white background. The top image is a circular pattern resembling a cracked surface or dried mud, with a dark, textured appearance. Below it, a smaller rectangular image shows a detailed drawing of a bone, possibly a femur, with a focus on the joints. Both images have a vintage or aged quality to them.
An artwork featuring two separate images on a white background. The top image is a square plate with concentric circular patterns resembling spirals, etched onto a dark, grungy surface. Below it, a smaller rectangular image shows an X-ray of a human knee joint. The artist's signature is visible in the top right corner of the white background.
A piece of artwork featuring two separate images on a white background. The top image is a square print with abstract concentric circular lines, resembling a rough sketch, in black on a beige background. The bottom image is a smaller, darker print of an organic, curvilinear shape that gives the impression of a bone or a piece of sculpture. Both images are centered on the vertical axis but with a significant gap between them. The paper on which they are printed has a rough bottom edge, suggesting it may be handcrafted or torn from a larger sheet.
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.
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.
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.
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 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.

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.
