Human skeleton, artwork F007 / 4221

Back muscles. Computer artwork showing selected muscles of the back and neck. The innermost muscles either side of the spine are the longissimus muscles. Outermost are the iliocostalis muscles. These muscles maintain good posture and stabilise the torso. The longissimus capitis muscle is seen in the neck. It attaches to the upper thoracic vertebrae and the mastoid process of the skull. It helps to keep the head erect as well as with backwards and side-to-side movements

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the intricate details of the human skeleton, specifically focusing on the back muscles. Through computer artwork, selected muscles of the back and neck are highlighted, providing a deeper understanding of their functions. The innermost muscles flanking either side of the spine are known as the longissimus muscles, while the outermost ones are called iliocostalis muscles. These powerful structures play a crucial role in maintaining good posture and stabilizing the torso. Additionally, this artwork reveals the presence of another significant muscle called longissimus capitis in the neck region. This particular muscle attaches to both upper thoracic vertebrae and mastoid process of skull, aiding in keeping our heads erect and facilitating backward as well as side-to-side movements. Displayed against a grey background, this half-length illustration offers an insightful glimpse into adult anatomy with its focus on key elements such as bones like vertebrae, ribs, scapula (shoulder blade), pelvis, sacral spine along with different sections of spinal column including cervical (neck), thoracic (chest) and lumbar (lower back) regions. With its scientific accuracy and attention to detail, this print serves as an invaluable resource for anyone interested in exploring human biology or studying anatomical structures.
