Poster about sea urchins, after a 1904 lithograph by the German naturalist and artist Ernst Haeckel. Dimensions: 30 X 42 cm. Frame not included. High-quality, thick paper, 160 gsm. Shipped securely in a rigid package. This illustration highlights the great diversity of shapes and structures that sea urchins can take. The black background brings out the intricate details of their calcareous skeleton, with geometric patterns that are sometimes almost floral. Some exhibit star-like symmetry, while others are covered in tubular structures reminiscent of small antennae. The fine, ribbed, or honeycomb-like textures attract the eye and reveal a highly precise graphic work. This poster also evokes objects such as a magnifying glass or microscope, so much does it invite the viewer to approach and observe every minute detail.
