Abstract: The ‘transparent woman of Dresden’ is the female anatomical model created by the Deutsches Hygiene-Museum of Dresden (1936). A scientific didactic model made of cellon plastic; the icon of the eugenics movement; created as a metaphor of the overcome of corporeality associated with impurity; metaphor of the social organization of labor; the result of research concerned with the role of women in society. The changes of meaning that this object has acquired are studied in different historical contexts, taking into account the educational and scientific interests registered as aesthetic rules that coordinated its visuality. For this study, consultation was carried out on textual and three-dimensional documents located in different archives and museums, including the object itself and its instruction manual.
