Yours

This is a drawing of a human skeleton from the back view. The drawing shows the skeletal structure with details, featuring the vertebral column in the center, with ribs extending outward. The pelvis, legs, joints, and individual bones down to the toes are depicted. The shading technique adds depth to the drawing, creating a three-dimensional effect. The drawing is done on brown-toned paper.
