Reference Pictures

I figured that if you want to study anatomy successfully you need as much "real life footage" as you can get, so I wanted to include a little library of pictures at the end of every page.

✅ When you search for reference pictures try to include many viewpoints, male/female looking bodies and a variety of models that show different characteristics. 

❌ Remember to not show explicit content, so that everyone can use AnatomyArchive.
If you need to crop or blur explicit parts of the picture, make sure to include that in the citing, e.g. “credit to: Lt. Reid; this image is modified (cropped)”

Avoid AI made content please :)


  • No credit needed:
    • Public domain images (CC0)
    • Free to use pictures without restrictions
    • Sources that are explicitly stated below (for example a partnership with a model)
  • Credit needed:
    • CC BY pictures (Creative Commons Attribution license)

Note: In my personal projects I always try to credit all authors, but sometimes it is just easier to use pictures, where you have zero obligations.

  • Wikimedia Commons
    • Filter for "No restriction" which means public domain images (CC0)
  • Pixabay
    • No paid license, so everything is usable
  • Unsplash
    • Many good pictures under their free license
