HUMAN BRAIN IN SAGITTAL HEMISECTION

The brain is complex, mysterious, and symbolic. Everything from cognition to memory to action begins here. The brain is shown here sliced down its midline to reveal the junction between the left and right hemispheres.

 

Based on sketches from a specimen in the JCB Grant's Museum, this illustration is intended to demonstrate the curvature and form of the brain through line. To create this image, I used ink to crosshatch and stipple, creating the illusion of shadow and different tissue colours.
