Head muscles
Head musculature. Historical artwork of the facial and other head muscles (red) on a human skull. The temporal muscle is shown in the lower frame. The upper frame shows the muscles attached to the ear, which are not very developed in humans. The facial muscles are well developed, allowing the extensive facial expressions (with the eyes, nose, lips, cheeks and forehead) that are an important part of non-verbal communication. The large and powerful jaw muscles are also seen. Published in The Muscles of the Human Body by Jones Quain in 1836

23"x19" (58x48cm) Premium Frame
FSC real wood frame with double mounted 16x12 print. Double mounted with white conservation mountboard. Frame moulding comprises stained composite natural wood veneers (Finger Jointed Pine) 39mm wide by 21mm thick. Archival quality Fujifilm CA photo paper mounted onto 1mm card. Overall outside dimensions are 23x19 inches (584x482mm). Rear features Framing tape to cover staples, 50mm Hanger plate, cork bumpers. Glazed with durable thick 2mm Acrylic to provide a virtually unbreakable glass-like finish. Acrylic Glass is far safer, more flexible and much lighter than typical mineral glass. Moreover, its higher translucency makes it a perfect carrier for photo prints. Acrylic allows a little more light to penetrate the surface than conventional glass and absorbs UV rays so that the image and the picture quality doesn't suffer under direct sunlight even after many years. Easily cleaned with a damp cloth. Please note that, to prevent the paper falling through the mount window and to prevent cropping of the original artwork, the visible print may be slightly smaller to allow the paper to be securely attached to the mount without any white edging showing and to match the aspect ratio of the original artwork.

EDITORS COMMENTS
This historical artwork showcases the intricate and layered musculature of the human head. Published in 1836 by Jones Quain, it provides a detailed glimpse into the complex structure responsible for our facial expressions and non-verbal communication. The red-colored muscles depicted on a human skull highlight the well-developed facial muscles that enable us to convey a wide range of emotions through our eyes, nose, lips, cheeks, and forehead. These expressive features play an essential role in conveying messages without words. In this fascinating illustration, attention is drawn to the temporal muscle showcased in the lower frame. Its prominence emphasizes its power and significance in facilitating jaw movement. The upper frame focuses on less developed ear muscles found in humans compared to other species. Not only does this image offer valuable insights into anatomical structures but also serves as a testament to scientific advancements during the 19th century. It beautifully captures both superficial and deep layers of head musculature while highlighting key elements such as bones, tendons, ligaments, and ocular connections. As we delve into this historical imagery from Science Photo Library's collection titled "The Muscles of the Human Body" we are reminded of how intricately designed our bodies are. This print invites us to appreciate not only their functional aspects but also their artistic beauty within medical illustrations from centuries past.
