Skull and Rib Cage Artwork - Intricate Ink Illustration #1866234 (License: Personal Use)

This high-contrast pen-and-ink illustration features a realistic human skull positioned centrally, surrounded by concentric, interlaced rib bones that form a dynamic spherical framework. Fine cross-hatching adds depth and texture to the cranium and vertebrae, while negative space enhances the illusion of three-dimensionality. The composition evokes themes of mortality, protection, and cyclical existence.
