EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases an artist's vivid interpretation of a Jurassic landscape, taking us back to a time that existed millions of years ago. The Jurassic period, spanning from 195 to 135 million years ago, was characterized by an array of fascinating flora and fauna. The image beautifully captures the essence of this era. The lush vegetation depicted in the artwork includes cycads, ginkgoes, conifers, and ferns - plant forms that have endured through time and can still be found today. In the vibrant seas and freshwater bodies of this ancient world, ammonites and other molluscs thrived alongside hexacorals and echinoids. However, it is undoubtedly the dinosaurs that steal the spotlight in this prehistoric scene. Towering above their surroundings with majestic presence, these dominant terrestrial creatures ruled over their domain during the Jurassic period. As we explore this mesmerizing illustration further, we catch glimpses of small mammals already making their mark on Earth while witnessing the emergence of early birds. Transporting us into a realm long gone but forever intriguing to our imaginations, this remarkable artwork serves as a reminder of how life has evolved throughout history. It sparks curiosity about our planet's past inhabitants and invites contemplation on our own place within nature's grand tapestry.
