A sick Triceratops reference eye in a socket display from Steven Spielberg's Jurassic Park. While on a tour of Isla Nublar with Dr. John Hammond (Richard Attenborough), Drs. Alan Grant (Sam Neill) and Ellie Sattler (Laura Dern) came across a sick triceratops whose condition they attempted to diagnose.

This ornately detailed Triceratops eye with a sculpted yellow and black core, lifelike brown latticework veins, and a dental acrylic coating was created by key artist Rob Hinderstein at Stan Winston Studio. During production, the eye was inserted into a hand-painted and hand-textured foam and resin Triceratops socket display to demonstrate the dinosaur's potential eye movements to Spielberg. The eye is now permanently installed in the display and remains static with a resin milky discharge to convey its ill state. The display exhibits cracked foam and minor paint flaking from age. Dimensions: 7.25" x 3" x 7.5" (18.5 cm x 7.75 cm x 19 cm)

Estimate: $3,000 - 6,000
