Heart-lung circulatory system, artwork
Heart-lung circulatory system, computer artwork. The heart (centre) is a hollow muscle that pumps blood around the body. The two branches of the pulmonary artery (red) carry deoxygenated blood from the heart to the lungs. Oxygenated blood returns from the lungs in the two branches of the pulmonary vein (blue-violet)

EDITORS COMMENTS
This artwork by Alfred Pasieka showcases the intricate beauty of the heart-lung circulatory system. In this computer-generated image, we are presented with a composite radiography of the chest, revealing the complex network of arteries and veins that facilitate healthy blood circulation. At the center of attention is the heart, a hollow muscle responsible for pumping oxygenated blood throughout our bodies. Its vibrant red color symbolizes its vital role in sustaining life. From here, two branches of the pulmonary artery extend outward, carrying deoxygenated blood from the heart to be purified in the lungs. The blue-violet hues represent the two branches of the pulmonary vein as they transport oxygen-rich blood back from our lungs to nourish our organs and tissues. The branching patterns elegantly illustrate how these vessels navigate through our bodies, ensuring an efficient flow of life-sustaining substances. Pasieka's artwork not only captures anatomical accuracy but also highlights both respiratory and cardiac systems' interdependence. It serves as a reminder of how crucial it is to maintain a healthy circulatory system for overall well-being. This mesmerizing print invites us to marvel at nature's design while deepening our appreciation for this remarkable mechanism that keeps us alive and thriving.
