Skull, computer artwork

Skull. Computer artwork of an opaque view of a human skull. An adult skull is normally made up of 22 bones and can be subdivided into two parts: the cranium and the mandible (lower jaw bone). The bones of the cranium are joined together by sutures to form a solid structure that encloses and protects the brain. The very tiny amount of movement permitted at these joints contributes to the compliance and elasticity of the skull. The skull contains the sinus cavities, which are air-filled cavities lined with respiratory epithelium, and sockets for the eyes (orbits)

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Skull, computer artwork" by Alfred Pasieka offers a mesmerizing and detailed view of the human skull. The opaque perspective allows us to appreciate the intricate structure of this vital part of our anatomy. Composed of 22 bones, the adult skull can be divided into two main sections: the cranium and mandible. The cranium forms a protective enclosure for our brain, with its bones joined together by sutures to create a solid framework. This unique design not only safeguards our most precious organ but also provides some flexibility and elasticity through minimal movement at these joints. Within the skull are sinus cavities lined with respiratory epithelium, serving as air-filled spaces that contribute to our respiratory system's functioning. Additionally, we can observe sockets for the eyes or orbits in this artwork. Alfred Pasieka's illustration showcases remarkable attention to detail, emphasizing each tooth and joint within this anatomical masterpiece. Against a white background, this art piece stands out as an accurate representation of human health and anatomy.
