EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the fascinating world of swine, featuring four distinct species in intricate detail. The line engraving, created by a German artist in the late 19th century, beautifully captures the essence of each animal. At first glance, we are introduced to the formidable wild boar (Sus scrofa), with its powerful build and imposing tusks. Its untamed nature is evident through its fierce gaze and muscular physique. Next in line is the collared peccary (Dicotyles torquatus), a smaller yet equally intriguing creature. With its distinctive collar-like band across its neck, this species exudes an air of elegance amidst its rugged appearance. The warthog (Macrocephalus africanus) takes center stage with its unmistakable facial features and impressive set of curved tusks. This unique member of the swine family possesses both strength and resilience that perfectly suits its African habitat. Lastly, we encounter the babirusa (Babirussa babirussa), a truly extraordinary specimen. Its elongated snout adorned with magnificent curving tusks sets it apart from any other pig-like creature on earth. This remarkable engraving not only serves as a visual delight but also offers valuable insights into zoology and biology during the 19th century. It allows us to appreciate these diverse creatures' beauty while deepening our understanding of their characteristics and habitats.
