Forearm in supine position, artwork C016 / 2853

Pronation of the forearm. Artwork of an anterior (frontal) view of a human left forearm with relaxed hand and thumb and fingers outstretched, showing the underlying bone structure during pronation. The forearm is rotated while keeping the upper arm and elbow stationary. This joint movement, turning the palm from facing up to facing down, is known as pronation. It causes the two forearm bones, the ulna and radius, to cross (here, the ulna passes below the radius). Also visible are the wrist bones, part of the metacarpals of the hand, and part of the humerus (upper arm bone)

EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, titled "Forearm in supine position, artwork C016 / 2853" showcases the intricate details of pronation in a human left forearm. The image depicts an anterior view of the forearm with a relaxed hand and outstretched fingers, revealing the underlying bone structure during this joint movement. Pronation refers to the rotation of the forearm while keeping the upper arm and elbow stationary. In this particular illustration, we witness the palm transitioning from facing up to facing down. As a result, the two forearm bones - ulna and radius - cross each other (with ulna passing below radius). Additionally, one can observe wrist bones, part of metacarpals (hand), and part of humerus (upper arm bone). The artist's attention to detail is remarkable as they capture every aspect of this anatomical process. The white limb against a blue background creates a striking contrast that draws viewers' eyes towards the complexity within our bodies. This artwork not only serves as an aesthetic piece but also provides valuable insights into human biology. It offers an educational perspective on normal anatomy and healthy joint movement for those interested in understanding how our bodies function. Displayed by Springer Medizin/Science Photo Library, this print exemplifies their commitment to delivering high-quality scientific imagery for educational purposes.
