This print captures the mesmerizing beauty of a Glassfrog hanging from a stick. Against a striking black background, this amphibian stands out with its lime green body, characteristic of most glassfrogs. However, what truly sets it apart is its transparent abdominal skin.

The internal organs such as the heart, liver, and gastrointestinal tract are clearly visible in intricate detail. It is no wonder that these unique frogs have earned their common name - Glassfrog. The delicate nature of this image showcases the wonders of biology and zoology at play. Every aspect from the frog's belly to its underside tells a story about its existence in the wild.
