Project Description
The purpose of this assignment was to illustrate an anatomical structure with traditional pen and ink. This illustration depicts an inferior view of the brain with the left cerebral and cerebellar hemispheres removed. The absence of these structures exposes the normally concealed trochlear nerve (CN IV), as well as the thalamus and cerebral peduncle. This illustration would be presented in an anatomical atlas or anatomy textbook.
