Foot muscles, artwork C013 / 4487
Foot muscles. Computer artwork of a view looking down on some of the muscles and tendons (red and white) of the upper surface of the foot. Shown in both views are the extensor hallucis brevis muscle and the extensor digitorum brevis muscles, used to extend (straighten) the big toe and the three middle toes. The view at right also shows a semi-transparent view of tendon extensions reaching further down the toes to the final set of phalanges, as well as some of the ligaments (white). The ligaments most clearly seen are the strap-like ones of the ankle running across the base of the tibia

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the intricate beauty of foot muscles, providing a unique perspective on the human anatomy. In this computer artwork, we are presented with a top-down view of the upper surface of the foot, revealing an array of vibrant red and white muscles and tendons. The focus lies on two prominent muscles: the extensor hallucis brevis muscle and the extensor digitorum brevis muscles. These powerful entities play a crucial role in extending or straightening both the big toe and three middle toes. The attention to detail is remarkable as we observe tendon extensions reaching down towards the final set of phalanges, accompanied by delicate ligaments in pristine white. Notably visible are strap-like ankle ligaments gracefully traversing across the base of the tibia bone. This comprehensive illustration offers insight into various components that contribute to our mobility and overall well-being. From above, we gain an appreciation for how these interconnected structures work harmoniously within our musculoskeletal system. The image provides valuable information for anatomical studies while simultaneously evoking awe at nature's design. This visually striking artwork serves as a testament to human ingenuity in capturing scientific wonders through artistry. It invites us to marvel at our own bodies' complexity while deepening our understanding of foot anatomy – a true testament to both science and creativity intersecting seamlessly.
