Disarticulated skull, computer artwork
Skull. Computer artwork of a view of a disarticulated human skull. An adult skull is normally made up of 22 bones and can be subdivided into two parts: the cranium and the mandible (lower jaw bone). The bones of the cranium are joined together by sutures to form a solid structure that encloses and protects the brain. The very tiny amount of movement permitted at these joints contributes to the compliance and elasticity of the skull. The skull contains the sinus cavities, which are air-filled cavities lined with respiratory epithelium, and sockets for the eyes (orbits)

This print showcases a stunning computer artwork of a disarticulated human skull. The intricate details and expert craftsmanship bring to life the complexity of this anatomical structure. Comprised of 22 bones, an adult skull can be divided into two main parts: the cranium and the mandible, or lower jaw bone. The cranium's bones are skillfully joined together by sutures, creating a solid framework that encloses and safeguards the brain. While these joints allow for minimal movement, they also contribute to the skull's compliance and elasticity. Within this remarkable structure lie sinus cavities, air-filled spaces lined with respiratory epithelium, as well as sockets for our eyes known as orbits. Against a striking black background, this illustration highlights every aspect of the skull's composition - from its teeth to its jointed anatomy. Alfred Pasieka's artistry captures not only the beauty but also the intricacy of human anatomy. This mesmerizing piece serves as both an educational tool and an artistic representation of one of our most vital body parts. It invites us to appreciate not only its structural significance but also its role in maintaining our overall health. With each glance at this disarticulated masterpiece, we gain a deeper understanding and admiration for the marvels that lie within us all.
