Pelvis bones and ligaments
Pelvis bones and ligaments. Historical anatomical artwork of pelvis bones (yellow) and ligaments (white). Ligaments are bands of fibrous tissue that hold bones together at their joints. These artworks show (left-right then top-bottom): front and rear views of a hip joint (left hip; spine, upper leg and pelvis bones all shown); side views of the same joint from both sides (the internal view at right is sectioned); close-up of capsular ligament of a hip joint and a dislocated hip with the capsular ligament removed. Down centre are details of the ligaments joining the two sides of the pelvis. Artwork from The Bones and Ligaments of the Human Body (Ed. Jones Quain, London, 1842)

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a historical anatomical artwork of pelvis bones and ligaments. The intricate illustration, dating back to the 19th century, provides a detailed view of the yellow-colored pelvis bones and white ligaments that hold them together at their joints. The artwork presents various perspectives, starting with front and rear views of a hip joint on the left side. It beautifully depicts the spine, upper leg, and pelvis bones in addition to highlighting the joint itself. Moving along, we are presented with side views from both angles; an internal sectioned view is also included for better understanding. A close-up image focuses on the capsular ligament of a hip joint while showcasing another intriguing detail - a dislocated hip with its capsular ligament removed. Down the center of this remarkable piece lies an emphasis on the ligaments that connect both sides of the pelvis. Originally featured in "The Bones and Ligaments of Human Body" edited by Jones Quain in London during 1842, this artwork holds immense historical value within medical literature. Its inclusion in textbooks during that era speaks volumes about its significance as an educational resource for aspiring medical professionals. Overall, this print offers viewers a glimpse into our skeletal structure's complexity while shedding light on arthrology (the study of joints) through stunning artistry from centuries past.
