Leg anatomy, artwork C013 / 4493
Leg anatomy. Computer artwork of an oblique anterior 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 leg articulates with the pelvis at the hip joint. 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 large blood vessels in the groin, also the location of several lymph nodes (round, green), and the nerves from the spinal cord

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the intricate anatomy of a human leg in stunning detail. Created through computer artwork, it offers an oblique anterior view that allows us to explore the various components that make up this vital limb. From muscles and tendons depicted in shades of brown and white, to bones and ligaments shown in white, every aspect is meticulously portrayed. Arteries and veins are represented by vibrant red and blue hues, while nerves are highlighted in yellow. The lymph vessels stand out with their striking green color. The leg serves as a crucial connection between the pelvis at the hip joint, where it articulates with strength and flexibility. Further down, the upper leg or thigh joins seamlessly with the lower leg at the knee joint. Finally, at the ankle joint, we witness how the lower leg harmoniously connects with the foot. Key bones such as femur (thigh bone), tibia (shinbone), and fibula contribute to its structural integrity. Blood vessels arise from larger vessels located in our groin area alongside several lymph nodes. This comprehensive illustration not only provides insight into our musculoskeletal system but also sheds light on our circulatory system's complexity. It serves as a reminder of both our biological marvels and how interconnected each component is within our bodies' intricate framework.
