EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a stunning illustration of the Domestic Pig from 1860. Created by an anonymous German School artist in the 19th century, this colour lithograph is now part of a private collection. The artwork was originally featured in "A Bilder-Atlas zur wissenschaftlich-populären Naturgeschichte der Säugetiere in ihren sämtlichen Hauptformen" a publication by Leopold Joseph Fitzinger. In this image, we see the Domestic Pig alongside another fascinating creature called the Indian Hirscheber or Babyrussa. The intricate details and vibrant colors bring these animals to life, allowing us to appreciate their unique characteristics. The Domestic Pig, scientifically known as Sus Scrofa domestica, represents one of humanity's oldest domesticated animals and has played an essential role in various cultures throughout history. The inclusion of the Indian Hirscheber or Babyrussa adds further intrigue to this composition. Also known as Porcus babyrussa or Sus babirussa, this mammal resembles both a pig and a deer with its distinctive features. This remarkable illustration not only captures the beauty and diversity found within our animal kingdom but also serves as a testament to scientific exploration during that era. Preserved through time and made available by Bridgeman Images via Fine Art Finder, it continues to inspire curiosity about these magnificent creatures among art enthusiasts and nature lovers alike.
