Artists have long studied internal anatomy to better represent the external human form. Anatomy elements such as bone , muscle, proportion are emphasized according to the artist's historical time period and objective. For example Albrecht Durer (Norther European Renaissance) emphasized the muscle structure to idealize the human form to a god like state. Contemporary renderings of Comic books heroes such as Spiderman, similarly emphasize the muscle anatomy making the characters more than human. Various examples of the human form in Western Art are below.
