EDITORS COMMENTS
This woodcut print from 1607 showcases the majestic Aurochs, an ancient and now extinct species of wild cattle. Created by Edward Topsell for his renowned book "The History of Four-Footed Beasts" this artwork offers a glimpse into the early world of natural history and zoology. The Aurochs, depicted in intricate detail, stands as a testament to the incredible diversity of life that once roamed our planet. Its powerful physique and imposing horns are beautifully captured in this woodcut, evoking both awe and admiration for these magnificent creatures. As we gaze upon this historical artifact, we are transported back in time to London, England during the 17th century. This woodcut print not only serves as a visual record but also reflects the curiosity and fascination with nature prevalent during that era. Today, sadly, the Aurochs exists only in our collective memory and through works like these. It reminds us of how fragile biodiversity can be and emphasizes the importance of preserving our natural heritage. Granger Art on Demand has preserved this remarkable piece from The Granger Collection's archives. Through their dedication to showcasing significant historical artworks like this one, they allow us to appreciate the beauty and wonder of nature across different periods in human history.
