Anatomical Heart Greeting Card, Vintage Anatomy Art Print

In an era of fleeting digital sentiments, the De Humani Cordis (Of the Human Heart) greeting card serves as a tangible artifact of enduring devotion. Drawing inspiration from the 16th-century woodcuts of Andreas Vesalius and the moody aesthetic of the Victorian study, this card eschews the superficial for the structural. It is a declaration that your love is not merely a metaphor, but a vital, pulsing reality—complex, essential, and fiercely alive.

Designed for the Dark Academia scholar, the medical professional, and the gothic romantic, this card transforms the act of giving into a ritual of connection. Whether for a Valentine, a hand-fasting anniversary, or a gesture of gratitude to a healer, it speaks the language of both science and soul.

✦ ARTISTRY & MATERIAL ✦

Each card is a study in archival elegance, designed to feel like a page torn from a Renaissance medical tome.

The Illustration: A meticulously detailed vintage-style diagram of twin anatomical hearts, connected by a shared vessel loop. The text "Fig. 14: The Twin Pulse" anchors the design in scientific realism.

The Palette: A deep, oxygenated Sepia and Crimson highlights the organ against a background of Aged Parchment, mimicking the oxidation of centuries-old vellum.

The Tactile Experience: Printed on luxurious, heavyweight matte cardstock that offers a satisfying resistance—substantial enough to be framed as a miniature print long after the occasion has passed.

The Typography: Elegant, serif-style text that whispers of typewriters and quill-penned letters.

✦ EVOCATIVE STYLING INSPIRATION ✦

The De Humani Cordis is not limited to a single saint’s day. It is a chameleon of the heart, suitable for:

The Dark Romantic: For the partner who finds beauty in the macabre and the mysteries of mortality. The Latin inscription elevates the sentiment beyond the mundane.

The Healer: An ideal token for Cardiologists, Cardiac Nurses, Biology Teachers, and Medical Students who understand the true weight of a heartbeat.

The Twin Soul: The "Synchronous Beating" motif makes this an exquisite choice for twins, platonic soulmates, or "Galentines" who share a rhythm of life.

The Solitary Scholar: A framed addition to a curiosity cabinet, placed alongside crystals, dried flora, and leather-bound tomes.

✦ A PERFECT & UNCOMMON GIFT ✦

This listing offers flexibility for the solitary practitioner or the coven gathering.

Quantity: Available in single cards (for a singular devotion) or packs of 5 and 10 (for the generous spirit).

Dimensions: Standard 5x7 inch card (A7 size), offering a substantial canvas for your inscription.

Interior: The inside reveals a printed sentiment: "Two different beats, one shared rhythm. You are vital to my existence." This leaves ample white space for your own incantations, poetry, or personal messages.
