EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning color lithograph print captures the intricate details of the foetal and maternal surfaces of the placenta, showcasing the miraculous connection between mother and child during pregnancy. The delicate lines and vibrant hues bring to life this essential organ that nourishes and protects the developing baby in the womb.
Created by an unknown American artist in the 20th century, this illustration was featured in Louise Zabriskie's Nurses Handbook of Obstetrics, a valuable resource for medical professionals at the time. The image beautifully depicts the bond between a pregnant woman and her unborn child, highlighting the wonder of maternity and maternal love.
The foetal surface shows tiny blood vessels branching out like tree roots, while on the maternal side, intricate structures support nutrient exchange between mother and baby. This detailed representation provides a glimpse into the complex biological processes that sustain life within a mother's body.
Whether displayed in a medical office or as part of a personal collection, this print serves as a reminder of the marvels of human reproduction and underscores the importance of women's health throughout pregnancy.
