EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, titled "Common Frogs, 1908" and created by an unknown artist in 1943, transports us back to the enchanting world of wildlife in early 20th century Europe. The image showcases a species of frog known as Rana temporaria, commonly found throughout the continent. It was originally featured in George Albert Boulenger's renowned book "The Tailless Batrachians of Europe" which served as a valuable resource for naturalists and scientists. Published within the pages of "Wildlife of Britain" by F. Fraser Darling, this lithograph captures the essence of British countryside with its vibrant orange hues. The color palette beautifully complements the intricate details depicted on each amphibian's skin. As we delve into this piece from our social history archives, we are reminded not only of its scientific significance but also its artistic value. The collaboration between William Collins Sons and Sir Frank Fraser Darling resulted in a remarkable collection called "Britain in Pictures". This particular print is a testament to their dedication to preserving and sharing Britain's rich natural heritage. Whether you appreciate it for its historical context or simply admire its aesthetic appeal, this print serves as a window into both the past and present fascination with these charming creatures that inhabit our world.
