EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite pen and ink annotated drawing of a Plesiosaurus is an original work by the renowned English fossil collector and dealer, Mary Anning (1799-1847). Created in 1824, during the nineteenth century's early Jurassic period excitement, this illustration showcases Anning's keen observation skills and her deep understanding of the anatomy of this enigmatic marine reptile. The Plesiosaurus, a member of the Plesiosauroidea order, is depicted with its long neck extending from its compact body, and its four powerful limbs propelling it gracefully through the Mesozoic seas. Anning's meticulous attention to detail is evident in the intricate pen work, which highlights the reptile's textured scales, webbed feet, and the serrated edges of its teeth. Anning's drawing is annotated with labels identifying various body parts, providing essential insights into the scientific knowledge of the time. The Plesiosaurus, a Diapsid reptile, was one of the first marine reptiles to be discovered and described, and its discovery revolutionized the understanding of the prehistoric world. This illustration is a testament to Mary Anning's remarkable contributions to the fields of paleontology and natural history. Her groundbreaking discoveries, including the first complete Ichthyosaur skeleton and the first Pterodactyl skeleton, continue to inspire and fascinate scientists and enthusiasts alike. This original drawing is an invaluable addition to any collection of marine reptile or paleontology-themed art, offering a glimpse into the past and the remarkable discoveries that shaped our understanding of the natural world.
