Buttock muscles, artwork C013 / 4421
Buttock muscles. Computer artwork of a side view (front of body at left) 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 right (semi-transparent) is the largest muscle, the gluteus maximus, one of the strongest muscles in the body. At upper centre is the gluteus medius, nestling beneath the iliac crest of the wing of the ilium bone of the pelvis. Partially seen at top is part of the spine, which ends in the coccyx (tailbone). The protruding bit of bone at centre left is the pubic tubercle

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the intricate details of the buttock muscles, providing a fascinating glimpse into the human anatomy. In this computer artwork, we are presented with a side view of the hips, where various muscles (highlighted in red) are depicted connecting to both the femurs and pelvis bones. At the lower right corner, we can observe the mighty gluteus maximus muscle, renowned as one of the strongest in our bodies. The composition also reveals another significant muscle called gluteus medius, nestled beneath the iliac crest of the wing-shaped ilium bone within our pelvis. As we explore further upwards, part of our spine comes into view before culminating in the coccyx or tailbone. Additionally, attention is drawn to a protruding bone at center-left known as pubic tubercle. This male skeleton profile illustration not only provides valuable insights into biology and anatomy but also emphasizes healthy musculoskeletal structures. It highlights key components such as connective tissues, tendons, ligaments that contribute to optimal joint function and mobility. Overall, this visually striking image offers an educational perspective on hip bones' role while showcasing essential elements like thigh bones (femurs), pelvic region intricacies (pubis and sacrum), vertebral column segments (lumbar vertebrae), and lower back musculature. A remarkable representation capturing both beauty and complexity within our skeletal system's muscular framework - an awe-inspiring testament to human physiology.
