Shoulder joint anatomy, artwork C016 / 6548
Shoulder joint anatomy. Artwork of the bones (yellow) and ligaments (blue) of the shoulder and pectoral girdle, as seen from the front. The sternum (breastbone) is at left, with rib cartilage (blue) on either side. Above that is the sternoclavicular joint where the sternum articulates with the two clavicles (collar bones). At upper right is one of the shoulder (glenohumeral) joints, with the clavicle resting on the scapula (shoulder blade), and the scapula articulating with the humerus (upper arm bone). A vein (bright blue) is also shown

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the intricate anatomy of the shoulder joint, beautifully illustrated in artwork C016 / 6548. Against a clean white background, the image highlights the bones and ligaments that compose this crucial joint from a frontal perspective. The yellow depiction of bones stands out against the blue ligaments, creating a visually striking contrast. Starting on the left side, we see the sternum or breastbone, flanked by rib cartilage in shades of blue. Above it lies the sternoclavicular joint where two clavicles or collar bones articulate with the sternum. Moving towards upper right, our attention is drawn to one of the shoulder (glenohumeral) joints where the clavicle rests upon the scapula or shoulder blade. The scapula then articulates with another bone called humerus – forming an essential connection for arm movement. Adding further detail to this anatomical masterpiece is a bright blue vein coursing through its structure, representing vital blood vessels within this region. Overall, this print not only serves as an educational tool but also captivates viewers with its aesthetic appeal. It provides a comprehensive understanding of how these various components work together seamlessly to facilitate normal shoulder function and mobility. A true testament to human biology's complexity and beauty captured by BO VEISLAND/SCIENCE PHOTO LIBRARY.
