Hip bones, artwork C016 / 7015

Hip bones. Artwork of a frontal (anterior) view of the left hip, showing the bones that articulate to form this joint. At lower right is the femur (thigh bone). The head of the femur (ball-shaped) is covered in cartilage (grey) that cushions it as it moves in the acetabulum, the hip socket in the pelvis. The pelvis bones that form part of the hip joint are the ischium and pubis (centre left) and the ilium (upper centre). At top left are the lower bones of the spine, the tailbone (coccyx), sacrum, and several lumbar vertebrae

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Hip bones, artwork C016 / 7015" offers a detailed frontal view of the left hip, showcasing the intricate bones that come together to form this vital joint. The image highlights the femur, or thigh bone, positioned at the lower right corner. Its ball-shaped head is covered in grey cartilage, providing cushioning as it moves within the acetabulum - the hip socket located in the pelvis. The pelvic bones involved in this joint are prominently displayed at center-left and upper-center. These include the ischium and pubis, forming part of the hip joint along with the ilium situated above them. At top left, we can observe several lumbar vertebrae alongside other lower spine components such as sacrum and coccyx (tailbone). This illustration on a white background not only showcases anatomical accuracy but also emphasizes elements related to biology and human anatomy. It provides valuable insight into how our hips function normally while highlighting key structures like vertebrae and leg bones. Created by D & L GRAPHICS for Science Photo Library, this artwork serves as an educational resource for those interested in understanding hip joints from a scientific perspective.
