Demonstration of a Pregnant Woman's Uterus and Full-Term Child, Jenty, 1759
A black-and-white engraving shows a pregnant woman's abdomen opened to reveal the uterus and what appears to be a full-term fetus within its membranes. Folded drapery and the figure's bare thighs frame the dome-shaped sac against a shaded background, with fine engraved hatching across the surface.
