About this work

This 1792 drawing by Jean Jacques Lequeu, titled Étude d'oreille, presents two studies of a human ear. The left figure, labeled Fig. 36, is a linear diagram with dashed construction lines, arcs, and red letter markings that map proportions of the ear. The right figure, Fig. 37, is a shaded rendering of the ear framed by wavy hair, with lettered points along its contours.
