Illustration of the limbic system of the brain
Limbic system. Illustration of the anatomical structures of the limbic system of the brain. The limbic system is represented in blue. At centre is the oval-shaped thalamus; at centre right, beside it are two lobes of the caudate nucleus; around these is the large C-shaped corpus callosum; at lower right are two bulb-like olfactory lobes; the reticular formation is the blue structure which extends into the brainstem (lower left). This complex network of nerve pathways is involved with the expression of instinct and mood. Activities governed by the limbic system include expression of fear, rage, pleasure, reproduction, self- preservation, and formation of memory patterns

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases an intricate illustration of the limbic system, a vital component of our brain's anatomy. The limbic system is depicted in a striking shade of blue, drawing attention to its significance in regulating various instinctual and emotional processes within us. At the center of this artistic representation lies the oval-shaped thalamus, serving as a pivotal hub for sensory information processing. Adjacent to it on the right side are two lobes of the caudate nucleus, contributing to motor control and reward-based learning. Encircling these structures is the large C-shaped corpus callosum, facilitating communication between both hemispheres of our brain. Towards the lower right corner, we observe two bulb-like olfactory lobes responsible for our sense of smell. Meanwhile, extending into the brainstem on the lower left side is the reticular formation – another crucial element involved in maintaining wakefulness and consciousness. The limbic system plays an integral role in shaping our behavior and experiences by governing emotions such as fear, rage, pleasure, and reproduction. It also contributes significantly to self-preservation instincts while aiding in memory formation. This awe-inspiring artwork not only highlights the complexity but also emphasizes how interconnected nerve pathways within this network enable us to express instinctual drives and regulate mood states effectively.
