Deltoid muscle
Deltoid muscle. Historical artwork of the musculature of the shoulder and the movement it creates by the Italian artist, engineer and scientist Leonardo da Vinci (1452-1519). The deltoid is a large muscle on the shoulder comprising front, middle and back sections. The front section (bottom) is used to lift the arm up and forwards (top). Da Vinci was one of the first people ever to produce drawings of anatomical subjects

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases an extraordinary historical artwork by the brilliant Italian artist, engineer, and scientist Leonardo da Vinci. Created between the 15th and 16th centuries, this monochrome illustration beautifully depicts the intricate musculature of the shoulder and its associated movement. Specifically, it focuses on the deltoid muscle - a prominent muscular structure comprising front, middle, and back sections. Leonardo da Vinci's pioneering talent in anatomical studies shines through as he meticulously captures every detail of this vital upper body muscle system. In this particular piece, we witness how the front section of the deltoid muscle is responsible for lifting the arm upwards and forwards. The naked male torso featured in this drawing adds to its artistic allure while emphasizing its anatomical significance. As one of history's first individuals to produce such detailed drawings of human anatomy, Leonardo da Vinci's work remains invaluable even today. Science Photo Library presents us with a remarkable glimpse into both artistry and scientific exploration through this historical image. It serves as a testament to Leonardo da Vinci's multifaceted genius while offering valuable insights into our understanding of human physiology.
