Human olfactory system, artwork C016 / 9378
Human olfactory system. Computer artwork of a section through a human head, showing the olfactory receptor cells (brush-like), and their location in the olfactory bulb (sausage-shape, upper centre-right) of the forebrain (brain, top right). These receptors are responsible for the sense of smell. The olfactory bulb contains many olfactory receptor cells that project through a layer of bone (beige) into the epithelial lining of the nasal cavity (red). They pick up smell information from molecules inhaled through the nose, and the olfactory bulb is responsible for transmitting these signals to the limbic area of the brain

EDITORS COMMENTS
This artwork, titled "Human olfactory system" offers a mesmerizing glimpse into the intricate workings of our sense of smell. The computer-generated illustration showcases a section through a human head, highlighting the olfactory receptor cells and their location in the olfactory bulb. The image reveals the brush-like structure of these receptor cells, which are responsible for detecting various scents in our environment. Positioned prominently in the upper center-right region is the sausage-shaped olfactory bulb, situated within the forebrain. This vital component acts as a relay station, transmitting signals from these receptors to the limbic area of our brain. Intriguingly, this artistic representation also emphasizes how these receptors extend into the nasal cavity through a layer of bone. The red epithelial lining within this cavity plays an essential role in capturing scent molecules that we inhale through our nose. With its white background and profile view, this print provides an immersive experience into understanding one aspect of human biology - our sense of smell. It beautifully combines elements such as tissue texture and anatomical accuracy to create an engaging visual representation. Whether you're fascinated by anatomy or simply intrigued by how we perceive odors, this artwork serves as both educational and visually stunning decor for any space.
