Skull bones, artwork

Skull bones. Computer artwork showing the major bones of the human skull. These are: frontal (purple, upper left), parietal (green/beige, upper right), occipital (blue, lower right), temporal (pink, centre), zygomatic (beige, centre left), mandible (jawbone, orange, lower left), maxilla (green, centre left), lacrimal (top of maxilla), nasal (left of maxilla), ethmoid (red), sphenoid (green, centre). The spinal column (backbone) can also be seen

EDITORS COMMENTS
This artwork showcases the intricate details of the human skull, offering a fascinating glimpse into our anatomy. The computer-generated image presents a color-coded representation of various major bones that form this vital structure. Each bone is meticulously highlighted to aid in identification and understanding. The frontal bone, depicted in striking purple on the upper left, harmoniously complements the green-beige parietal bone situated on the upper right. Moving clockwise, we encounter the blue occipital bone at the lower right corner, followed by the pink temporal bone positioned centrally. The beige zygomatic bone gracefully adorns the center-left region while drawing attention to its neighboring orange jawbone or mandible. Further exploration reveals additional intricacies such as the green maxilla with its lacrimal component atop it and an adjacent nasal bone on its left side. The red ethmoid and green sphenoid bones contribute to both structural integrity and aesthetic appeal. Notably, this composition also offers a glimpse of our spinal column or backbone snaking along behind these cranial elements. Its presence serves as a reminder of how interconnected our skeletal system truly is. With its white background serving as an artistic canvas for this vibrant illustration, this print from Science Photo Library captivates viewers with its blend of artistry and scientific precision. It invites us to marvel at nature's design while deepening our knowledge about human biology and osteology
