Unless stated otherwise, this image is from the 20th U.S. edition of Gray's Anatomy of the Human Body, originally published in 1918 and therefore lapsed into the public domain. A copy of Gray's Anatomy can be found on Bartleby and also on Yahoo!.
Lateral view of cerebrum showing several cortices. The cerebral cortex is the outer covering of the surfaces of the cerebral hemispheres and is folded into peaks called gyri, and grooves called sulci. In the human brain, it is between 2 and 3-4 mm. thick, [8] and makes up 40% of the brain's mass.

The visual cortex of the brain is the area of the cerebral cortex that processes visual information.It is located in the occipital lobe.Sensory input originating from the eyes travels through the lateral geniculate nucleus in the thalamus and then reaches the visual cortex.
The superior temporal gyrus (STG [1]) is one of three (sometimes two) gyri in the temporal lobe of the human brain, which is located laterally to the head, situated somewhat above the external ear. The superior temporal gyrus is bounded by: the lateral sulcus above; the superior temporal sulcus (not always present or visible) below;
The external capsule is a series of white matter fiber tracts in the brain. These fibers run between the most lateral (toward the side of the head) segment of the lentiform nucleus (more specifically the putamen) and the claustrum. The white matter of the external capsule contains fibers known as corticocortical association fibers.
Lateral view (left) and medial view (right). In both images, inferior temporal gyrus labeled at bottom. The areas colored green represent temporal lobe. (Brown is occipital and purple is limbic respectively.) The temporal lobe is unique to primates. In humans, the IT cortex is more complex than their relative primate counterparts.
