About this work
Overview
Muscular tissue of the hand and finger is a drawing by J Tinkelenberg, created around 1970. It is part of the collection at the Museum of Ethnography.
Subject & Meaning
The drawing depicts a dissected human hand and arm, revealing the underlying muscles, tissue, and tendons. The absence of a face and background emphasizes the anatomical focus, presenting a detailed, internal view of the human body.
Technique & Style
The artist employed shading to create a three-dimensional effect, making the muscles appear to protrude from the page. The level of detail and use of shading techniques, such as cross-hatching, suggest a scientific illustration with a high degree of precision.
