This image series shows a magnification progression of the Common Marmoset monkey from the whole body down through detail perceptible at the cellular level. The original intention was to photograph the whole fetal image; however, when magnified for closer inspection, the intriguing picture in the foot was observed. At a magnification of x12.5,
the bizarre likeness of the face in one of the toes was discovered. The three images were combined to record this scientific oddity.
