Much like unearthing a buried hoard of antiquities, the recovery of these retinal drawings offers fresh discovery of art in medicine. The striking representations of retinal disorders illustrate the range and beauty of this now rarely performed skill. Carefully rendered likenesses of the inside of the eye that are stunningly and eerily attractive were selected from a cache of over 12,000 drawings created over more than three decades. Unique to retinal drawing, the inside of the globe is shown as circular images, forcing each artist to depict distortions tinted by their own interpretation. This colorful book examines the technique and history of retinal drawing, its application and variations of artistic rendition, and covers a wide array of visually distinctive disorders.
