EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the awe-inspiring world of prehistoric creatures. In this image, we are transported back in time to witness the magnificent Pterodactyls and the long-necked sea-lizard known as Plesiosaurus dolichodeirus. With a length of 22 feet, these ancient beings were truly colossal. The scene is further enriched by the presence of a cuttle-fish or belemnite, adding an element of mystery and intrigue to this already fantastical tableau. This lithograph was created by European School artists in the 19th century and now resides in a private collection. The illustration originally appeared in "Extinct Monsters" by H. N. Hutchinson, featuring stunning visuals by J. Smit and other talented artists. Published in 1893 by Chapman and Hall, this book aimed to bring these extinct creatures to life through vivid imagery. As we gaze upon this print, we cannot help but marvel at the incredible diversity that once roamed our planet millions of years ago. It serves as a reminder of how evolution has shaped our world over time and highlights the importance of understanding our past for future generations. This engraving from Bridgeman Images allows us to appreciate not only the monstrous nature of these creatures but also their place within our collective imagination as fantastic characters from another era.
