EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "NORTH AMERICA: FAUNA" showcases the engraved frontispiece from the 1712 German edition of John Lawson's A New Voyage to Carolina. The image takes us back to an early colonial era, immersing us in the diverse wildlife and untamed beauty of North America. In this intricate engraving, we witness a remarkable display of nature's power and survival instincts. A buffalo stands tall, representing strength and resilience. Nearby, a terrapin fearlessly battles a rattlesnake while a blacksnake engages in its own deadly encounter with another rattlesnake. Meanwhile, a coiled rattlesnake patiently awaits its unsuspecting prey - a squirrel perched on a tree branch. The scene unfolds further as an opossum lurks in the shadows, showcasing its ability to adapt and blend into its surroundings. In contrast, a bobcat skillfully pulls down a deer with precision and agility. Not far away, we see a bear roaming freely through the forest while a raccoon cleverly fishes for crabs using its tail as bait. This engraving not only captures the essence of North American fauna but also serves as an important historical document that sheds light on early zoology studies during that time period. It reminds us of our connection to nature and how these magnificent creatures have shaped our understanding of biology and wildlife conservation. Through this stunning artwork by The Granger Collection, we are transported back in time to appreciate the rich biodiversity that has made North America truly awe-inspiring since ancient times.
