Osteographia Logo Tote Bag

$28.00

A study in mortality and precision. The skull that graces this tote originates from Osteographia, the 1733 anatomical masterpiece by London surgeon William Cheselden. Working with engravers Gerard Vandergucht and Jacob Schijnvoet, Cheselden employed a camera obscura (then a cutting-edge optical device) to capture the exacting geometry of the human skeleton. The result was not mere medical illustration but a meditation on structure itself: art and science meeting in chiaroscuro.

Printed on 100% certified organic cotton twill, this tote honors that same clarity of form. A reminder that even the most clinical studies can become unexpectedly sublime.
