Watercolor of skin histology, using Weigert fibrin staining, from Fabry's original article (1898)

"Weigert fibrin staining. The incision has struck some hemorrhages of the dermis, also quite close to the epidermis; the contrast between blue fabric and brown colored blur is very striking; the section shows no tissue hypertrophy in the uppermost layers of the epidermis." (Source: Fabry J. Ein Beitrag zur Kenntniss der Purpura haemorrhagica nodularis [Purpura papulosa haemorrhagica Hebrae]. Archiv für Dermatologie und Syphilis 1898;43:187-200.)
