Neck muscles, artwork C014 / 5066
Neck muscles. Computer artwork showing the muscles at the front of the neck. The two muscles going down the length of the cervical spine are the longus colli muscles. The muscles emerging from beneath the jaw and attaching to the vertebrae are the longus capitis muscles. Both these sets of muscles act to flex and rotate the head. The outer three muscles on each side of the neck that attach to the ribs are the scalene muscles. These muscles flex the head to the same side and elevate the first and second ribs

EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, titled "Neck Muscles" showcases the intricate anatomy of the neck in stunning detail. Created through computer artwork, it offers a comprehensive view of the muscles located at the front of the neck. The longus colli muscles gracefully extend along the length of the cervical spine, while beneath them lie the longus capitis muscles that attach to the vertebrae. Together, these muscle groups play a vital role in flexing and rotating our heads. The image also highlights another set of muscles known as scalene muscles, which are situated on each side of the neck and connect to our ribs. These powerful muscles not only aid in flexing our heads towards one side but also elevate our first and second ribs. With its focus on anatomical accuracy and attention to detail, this artwork provides valuable insights into human biology. It emphasizes how interconnected our musculoskeletal system is with every movement we make. Displayed against a backdrop featuring elements like bones and a skeletal structure, this illustration serves as an educational tool for students studying medicine or anyone interested in understanding their own body better. Its frontal perspective allows viewers to appreciate both form and function within this essential region of human anatomy – from below.
