Leg anatomy, artwork C013 / 4495
Leg anatomy. Computer artwork of an oblique side view looking down a human leg, showing muscles and tendons (brown and white), bones and ligaments (white), arteries and veins (red and blue), nerves (yellow), and lymph vessels (green). The upper leg (thigh) articulates with the lower leg at the knee, and the lower leg articulates with the foot at the ankle. The main bones are the femur, tibia and fibula. The arteries and veins arise from the groin, and the nerves arise from the spinal cord. The dorsal surface of the foot includes extensor muscle tendons extending to each toe, allowing them to be straightened. Ligaments are also shown

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the intricate anatomy of a human leg in stunning detail. Created through computer artwork, it offers an oblique side view looking down on the leg, revealing its complex network of muscles and tendons in shades of brown and white. The bones and ligaments are depicted in white, while arteries and veins are represented by vibrant red and blue hues. Nerves are highlighted in yellow, while lymph vessels stand out in green. Every element is meticulously illustrated to provide a comprehensive understanding of the leg's inner workings. The upper leg or thigh connects with the lower leg at the knee joint, while the lower leg articulates with the foot at the ankle joint. The main bones featured include the femur (thigh bone), tibia, and fibula. Arteries and veins originate from the groin area, while nerves arise from the spinal cord. Notably displayed on this image is also the dorsal surface of the foot with extensor muscle tendons extending towards each toe for straightening purposes. Ligaments play a crucial role as well. Overall, this artwork serves as an invaluable resource for anyone interested in studying or exploring human anatomy. It provides a detailed glimpse into our musculoskeletal system, circulatory system including blood vessels and lymphatic vessels as well as our neural network that makes up our nervous system
