EDITORS COMMENTS
This artwork by Claus Lunau titled "Mouth and Throat Anatomy" offers a mesmerizing glimpse into the intricate workings of our oral and respiratory systems. Against a pristine white background, this profile illustration showcases the complexity and beauty of human biology. The tongue takes center stage, its textured surface revealing countless taste buds that play an essential role in our sensory experience. Surrounding it, we see the nasal cavity, with delicate structures like the nose contributing to our sense of smell. Moving further down, we encounter the pharynx - a crucial junction where food and air intersect - leading to both the esophagus and trachea. Lunau's meticulous attention to detail allows us to explore each component individually: from vocal cords responsible for speech production to the epiglottis diligently guarding against choking hazards. The palate gracefully arches above, while below lies the laryngopharynx connecting various pathways within our throat. This artwork serves as a reminder of how seamlessly these internal structures work together in maintaining our health and well-being. It invites us to marvel at their intricacy while acknowledging their vital functions. As we gaze upon this print, let us appreciate not only its artistic value but also reflect on the remarkable design that enables humans' ability to speak, breathe, eat, and ultimately thrive.
