EDITORS COMMENTS
This etching, created by Samuel Howitt in 1811, depicts a dramatic encounter between a large sow and a menacing wolf within the confines of a pig sty. The intense snarl on the sow's face reveals her determination to protect herself and her fellow pigs from this predatory intruder. The scene is not merely an artistic creation but also serves as an illustration of one of Aesop's fables. Howitt skillfully brings this ancient Greek tale to life through his meticulous copperplate etching technique. His work captures the essence of the fable, which imparts moral lessons through anthropomorphic animal characters. In "A New Work of Animals". Howitt draws inspiration from various sources such as Aesop, Gay, and Phaedrus to create a collection that showcases both scientific accuracy and artistic finesse. This particular print exemplifies his ability to merge natural history with storytelling. As we gaze upon this image, we are transported back in time to early 19th-century Britain. The farm setting evokes images of rustic charm and hardworking farmers tending their livestock amidst picturesque landscapes. It reminds us of our connection with nature and the importance of preserving our agricultural heritage. Bridgeman Images has preserved this historical artwork for us to appreciate today. Through its intricate details and rich symbolism, it invites us into a world where animals become protagonists in tales that teach valuable life lessons.
