Chest bones
Chest bones. Historical artwork of the bones of the human chest. The breastbone (upper centre) at the front of the chest supports 12 pairs of ribs that circle the chest and connect to the backbone (down centre). The backbone is a flexible column of 26 spinal bones (vertebrae, not all seen here) supporting the body and protecting the spinal cord. The ribs form a protective cage around the heart and lungs (not seen). The collar bones (clavicles) run across the top of the ribcage and articulate with the arm bones (not seen) as do the scapula bones (shoulder blades) of the back

EDITORS COMMENTS
This historical artwork showcases the intricate details of the human chest bones. At the forefront, we see the breastbone, a central pillar that provides support for 12 pairs of ribs encircling and safeguarding vital organs such as the heart and lungs (not visible in this image). The backbone, running down the center, is composed of 26 spinal bones known as vertebrae (only partially depicted here), serving both as a flexible column supporting our body and protecting the delicate spinal cord. The ribcage forms an essential protective cage around our vital organs. Above it lie two collarbones called clavicles, which elegantly span across the top of the ribcage. These clavicles articulate with arm bones (not shown) to facilitate movement. Similarly, at the back are scapula bones or shoulder blades that also connect with arm bones. This remarkable illustration not only offers a glimpse into our biological anatomy but also serves as a testament to its historical significance. It reminds us of how intricately designed and interconnected our skeletal system is—a marvel that has evolved over centuries to provide structure, protection, and mobility to our bodies.
