Ichthyo - The architecture of fish: X-rays from the Smithsonian Institution
Comer, S.; Klochko, D. (Ed.) (2008). Ichthyo - The architecture of fish: X-rays from the Smithsonian Institution. Chronicle Books: San Francisco. ISBN 978-0-8118-6192-2. 189 pp.
Originally created to preserve a record of scientific samples, the black and white X-rays of fish at the Smithsonian Institution have emerged as astonishing works of art in their own right. This stunning compendium of images comparable to fine and delicate engravings is drawn from the National Museum of Natural History, which holds the world's largest collection of ichthyological specimens (and which, upon the reopening of its Ocean Hall in Summer of 2008, will put these X-rays on permanent display). As mesmerizingly beautiful as they are amazingly detailed, these images reveal the hidden wonders of the creatures of the deep.
