Buttock muscles, artwork C013 / 4424
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 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 (lower 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 right and left

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the intricate details of the buttock muscles, providing a fascinating insight into the human anatomy. In this computer artwork, we are presented with a posterior view of the hips, highlighting various muscles (depicted in red) that make up the buttocks. The gluteus minimus takes center stage as the smallest among three gluteal muscles, concealed beneath its larger counterparts - the gluteus maximus and gluteus medius. The image offers an educational perspective on how these muscles connect to both femurs (thigh bones) and pelvis bones, contributing to our mobility and stability. Positioned between two hips is the lower part of the spine, consisting of sacrum and coccyx. Additionally, glimpses of lower ribs can be seen at top right and left corners. With its emphasis on skeletal structure and musculature, this illustration serves as a valuable resource for those interested in biology or studying human anatomy. It sheds light on essential components such as tendons, ligaments, joints, connective tissue while also showcasing key elements like pubis bone and iliac crest. Overall, this visually striking artwork provides a comprehensive understanding of buttock muscles' role within our musculoskeletal system. Its detailed depiction invites viewers to appreciate both their complexity and significance in maintaining healthy hip function.
