Female ribcage

Female ribcage and upper body, computer artwork. The spine, which consists of blocks of bone (vertebrae) separated by spongy intervertebral discs, runs down centre. The ribcage (centre) is made up of twelve pairs of curved bones that attach to the spine at the back and the sternum at the front. In front of the ribcage at top are the collar bones (clavicles). Behind the ribcage at top are the shoulder blades (scapulas). The clavicles and scapulas articulate with the upper arm bones (humerus) to form the shoulders. The musculature and breasts can be seen over the bones

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the intricate beauty of the female ribcage and upper body. Created through computer artwork, it offers a mesmerizing glimpse into the complex anatomy that lies beneath our skin. At the center of this composition is the spine, composed of blocks of bone called vertebrae, separated by spongy intervertebral discs. It gracefully runs down the center, providing support and flexibility to our bodies. Surrounding it is the ribcage, consisting of twelve pairs of elegantly curved bones that attach to both the spine at the back and sternum at the front. Above this remarkable structure are two collar bones known as clavicles while behind it lie shoulder blades called scapulas. These elements form crucial connections with our upper arm bones or humerus, ultimately shaping our shoulders. The image also reveals glimpses of musculature and breasts delicately draped over these skeletal foundations. The attention to detail in this artwork allows us to appreciate not only their aesthetic appeal but also their vital role in maintaining a healthy human body. Overall, Science Photo Library has masterfully captured an anatomical wonder through this stunning visual representation – a testament to both scientific knowledge and artistic talent.
