Buttock muscles, artwork C013 / 4420
Buttock muscles. Computer artwork of a posterior 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 lower left is the largest muscle, the gluteus maximus, one of the strongest muscles in the body. Also seen at upper left, above the gluteus maximus, is the gluteus medius. At centre right (the right hip) only the smaller gluteus medius muscle is shown. The lower part of the spine and its vertebrae is at upper centre, ending in the sacrum and coccyx. Some of the lower ribs are also seen at top right and left

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the intricate network of muscles in the buttocks, providing a detailed view of their attachment to the femurs and pelvis bones. The vibrant red hues highlight the strength and power of these muscles, particularly emphasizing the largest one known as gluteus maximus. Renowned for its robustness, this muscle is considered one of the strongest in our entire body. The composition also reveals another significant muscle called gluteus medius, positioned above the gluteus maximus on the left side. However, on the right hip, only a smaller portion of this muscle is visible. Alongside these muscular structures lies an array of skeletal elements including lower ribs at both top corners and parts of the vertebral column extending upwards towards upper center. This male skeleton illustration not only delves into biological intricacies but also offers insights into human anatomy from behind. It explores various components such as connective tissues, tendons, ligaments, and joints that contribute to a healthy musculoskeletal system. Additionally, it highlights key features like pubis bone, sacrum and coccyx (tailbone), lumbar vertebrae (lower back), ilium (part of pelvis), ischium (hip bone), and iliac crest. Overall, this artwork provides an educational glimpse into our body's complex structure while celebrating its remarkable capabilities through vivid imagery captured by Springer Medizin/Science Photo Library.
