Lystrosaurus Skull — Plate IV

This historical scientific plate presents the underside of a Lystrosaurus latirostris skull as a single monumental specimen against a pale ground. Viewed from below, the fossil reveals an intricate arrangement of openings, ridges, cavities, and preserved cranial structures.

Deep black and charcoal surfaces dominate the specimen, interrupted by muted green areas and the warm off-white tone of the surrounding page. Its broad structure and near-symmetrical presentation give the original scientific photograph an unexpectedly bold graphic presence.
