Buttock muscles, artwork C013 / 4423
Buttock muscles. Computer artwork of a posterior oblique view of the hips, showing some of the muscles (red) of the buttocks. These are shown attached to the femurs (thigh bones) and the pelvis bones. At centre left is the gluteus minimus, the smallest of the three gluteal muscles. It is covered by the two larger gluteal muscles, the gluteus maximus and gluteus medius. These two larger muscles have been removed at left, but are shown on the right hip (centre right). The lower part of the spine, ending in the sacrum and coccyx, is between the two hips. Some of the lower ribs are at top

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the intricate details of the buttock muscles, providing a fascinating glimpse into human anatomy. In this computer artwork, we are presented with a posterior oblique view of the hips, where various muscles (highlighted in red) can be observed. The femurs (thigh bones) and pelvis bones serve as anchor points for these muscular structures. At the center left of the image, we find the gluteus minimus, which is notably smaller than its counterparts - the gluteus maximus and gluteus medius. These larger muscles have been removed on one side but are prominently displayed on the right hip. The lower part of the spine gracefully curves between both hips before culminating in the sacrum and coccyx. Additionally, some lower ribs can be seen at the top portion of this anatomical masterpiece. This illustration provides valuable insights into not only bone structure but also musculature and connective tissues that contribute to healthy joint function. It serves as a reminder of our body's complexity and how each component plays an integral role in maintaining overall well-being. With its meticulous attention to detail and scientific accuracy, this print from Springer Medizin/Science Photo Library offers an educational resource for those interested in biology, skeletal systems, or simply marveling at nature's design.
