Hand Anatomy

Hand anatomy artwork with bones, joints, tendons and ligaments.

The hand consists of the palm, fingers, and thumb, connected to the wrist by the metacarpal bones. The fingers have three joints each, enabling a wide range of movements and dexterity. The hand also contains numerous muscles, tendons, and ligaments that work together to facilitate grip, manipulation, and precision movements. Understanding hand anatomy is essential in comprehending its intricate mechanisms and abilities, and we think this artwork is a great starting point (and ending point) for anyone needing visual aid to effectively illustrate the anatomy of the hand.

We absolutely adore the old hand drawn anatomy illustrations and the intention with this artwork has been to honour their particular style, while combining it with a modern approach to patient education. Throughout our vintage collection, the names and labels have all been positioned to point towards the very centre of each artwork, an effect that is further enhanced with our signature dotted lines. This technique has given the informative texts an added function as a graphic element by itself; not to distract from the original source materials, but to complement it.
