EDITORS COMMENTS
This chromolithograph illustration, titled "Aceratherium" by the renowned German artist and book illustrator, Heinrich Harder, showcases an extinct genus of rhinoceros that once roamed the earth during the Oligocene and Pliocene epochs. Aceratherium, a member of the Aceratheriini family, is depicted in all its majestic glory, with its distinctive features including a single large horn projecting from its snout and a pair of smaller horns above its eyes. Heinrich Harder, born in 1858, was not only a talented landscape artist but also a masterful illustrator. His work, published in the book "Tiere der Urwelt" or "Animals of the Prehistoric World," published in Hamburg in 1916, remains a testament to his artistic abilities and his deep fascination with the natural world. The Aceratherium, a creature of the distant past, is brought to life in this vibrant and intricately detailed illustration. Its powerful build and robust appearance convey the strength and resilience of this extinct beast, which once shared the earth with other prehistoric wonders, such as dinosaurs. As we marvel at this image, we are transported back in time, to an era when the Aceratherium and other magnificent creatures roamed the earth. Harder's illustration serves as a reminder of the rich history of life on our planet and the importance of preserving and celebrating the natural world.
