EDITORS COMMENTS
This illustration captures the intricate details of a fossil tooth belonging to a horse, discovered in Bahia Blanca. The image is taken from Charles Darwin's renowned "Journal of Researches," first published in 1890. As one delves into this print, they are transported back in time to when Darwin himself was studying the diverse wildlife of Brazil.
The fossilized tooth serves as a tangible link to the ancient equine species that once roamed the lands of Bahia Blanca. Through this illustration, we gain insight into the anatomy and evolution of these majestic mammals that have played an integral role in human history.
Darwin's meticulous attention to detail is evident in this drawing, showcasing his passion for understanding the natural world. The horse depicted here belongs to the family Equidae, classified under Perissodactyla - one of the odd-toed ungulate species that have thrived over millions of years.
As we gaze upon this piece, we are reminded of our connection to all living beings and our shared evolutionary journey on Earth. This print not only serves as a visual delight but also sparks curiosity about our planet's rich biodiversity and the wonders waiting to be uncovered through scientific exploration.
