Cardiovascular system, artwork C013 / 4405
Cardiovascular system, computer artwork. The heart (centre) is a hollow muscle that pumps blood around the body. Arteries, which carry oxygenated blood around the body, are red. Veins, which carry deoxygenated blood back to the heart and lungs, are blue. The large artery down centre is the aorta, the large vein is the vena cava. Nerves are orange and lymph vessels are yellow. Also shown are the bones of the spine and rib-cage

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the intricate beauty of the cardiovascular system, as depicted in artwork C013 / 4405. At its core lies the heart, a remarkable hollow muscle responsible for pumping life-sustaining blood throughout our bodies. The arteries, depicted in vibrant red hues, serve as vital conduits carrying oxygenated blood to every corner of our being. In contrast, the veins are portrayed in serene shades of blue, symbolizing their crucial role in returning deoxygenated blood back to the heart and lungs. The focal point of this composition is undoubtedly the prominent artery running down the center - none other than the mighty aorta. Its counterpart, the large vein known as vena cava, stands proudly alongside it. A symphony of colors unfolds within this masterpiece; orange nerves intertwine with yellow lymph vessels against a backdrop that reveals both spine and rib-cage bones. This illustration not only celebrates human anatomy but also serves as an educational tool for understanding our body's inner workings. It offers insight into how our circulatory system functions harmoniously with other systems such as skeletal and nervous systems. As we gaze upon this mesmerizing image captured by Springer Medizin/Science Photo Library, we are reminded of both our fragility and resilience – an awe-inspiring reminder that within us lies a complex network that sustains life itself.
