Transparent Woman (Anatomical Figure), Welcome Foundation (Plastic, wire, c.1980, restored in 2006. Unknown designer, Stiftung Deutsches Hygiene-Museum Dresden) https://flic.kr/p/2pxt1GVYou can press the buttons on this 1980s anatomical model to see different organs light up around the body. The aim is to teach anatomy but such figures can also reinforce ideas about what is normal. There is no scope in a single model to represent differences - this is a generic woman' rather than an individual.
