EDITORS COMMENTS
This coloured engraving of a Warthog, created by the German School in the 19th century, is a true masterpiece that captures the essence and beauty of this fascinating creature. The print, part of a private collection, showcases the incredible talent of both illustrator Kretsch and engraver Johann Carl Bock. Originally published in "A Die SAaugthiere in Abbildungen nach der Natur mit Beschreibungen" by Johann Christian Daniel von Schreber between 1774-1855, this artwork stands as a testament to the rich history and importance of natural history illustrations. The attention to detail is remarkable, allowing viewers to appreciate every aspect of this majestic animal. The warthog depicted here belongs to the species Sus africanus or Phacochoerus africanus. Its distinctive features such as its prominent facial warts and tusks are beautifully rendered through meticulous engravings. This print serves not only as an artistic representation but also as an educational tool for those interested in studying these creatures up close. Bridgeman Images has preserved this extraordinary piece from ePurix Verlag Volker Christen's collection, ensuring that it continues to inspire awe and admiration for generations to come. As we gaze upon this enchanting image, we are reminded of nature's diversity and complexity while appreciating the skillful artistry behind its creation.
