Framed Print : Cranial nerves
Framed Photos from Science Photo Library
Cranial nerves
Cranial nerves, historical anatomical artwork. This neck and upper torso have been dissected to show the paths of the twelve cranial nerves (white). The cranial nerves emerge in the brainstem at the base of the brain, and mediate the movements and senses of the face and head. The vagus nerve, the 10th cranial nerve (central, white), extends to the abdomen, innervating the larynx, heart (lower, orange) and digestive system. This illustration is taken from the nineteenth-century French textbook, the Atlas of Human Anatomy and Surgery, by J. M. Bourgery and N. H. Jacob

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a historical anatomical artwork depicting the intricate network of cranial nerves within the human body. The image reveals a dissected neck and upper torso, meticulously illustrating the paths of the twelve cranial nerves in white. These vital nerves emerge from the brainstem at the base of the brain, playing a crucial role in mediating movements and senses related to the face and head. One particular nerve that stands out is the vagus nerve, also known as the 10th cranial nerve. This central white structure extends beyond its counterparts, reaching all the way down to innervate various organs such as the larynx, heart (depicted in lower orange), and digestive system located in our abdomen. Its extensive reach demonstrates its significance in regulating essential bodily functions. The artwork originates from an esteemed nineteenth-century French textbook called "Atlas of Human Anatomy and Surgery" authored by J. M. Bourgery and N. H. Jacob. This masterpiece not only serves as a testament to their expertise but also provides us with valuable insights into early surgical practices. With its detailed portrayal of cut-out sections showcasing organs like lungs, bronchi, spinal cord, thorax, and even highlighting structures like aorta and rhombencephalon (hindbrain), this illustration offers an invaluable glimpse into our complex biological makeup. As we delve into this mesmerizing piece of history captured by Science Photo Library's collection, we are reminded once again of how far we have come in understanding our own bodies through advancements in surgery, biology, neurology - ultimately unraveling countless mysteries hidden within our central nervous system.
