Neck Muscles, Lateral

Lateral view of the human neck muscles.

From the “Vintage Collection”.
The neck muscles consist of several layers and groups, including the superficial muscles such as the trapezius, sternocleidomastoid, and platysma. These muscles are responsible for movements of the head and neck, including rotation, flexion, and extension. Deeper muscles, such as the scalenes, longus colli, and splenius cervicis, assist in stabilising and supporting the neck. Understanding the anatomy of these muscles is crucial for diagnosing and treating various neck-related conditions and injuries, and we hope this artwork may assist you at the clinic.

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.
