EDITORS COMMENTS
In this illustration from Wilhelm Bolsche's "Prehistoric Life," published in 1932 by Georg Dollheimer in Leipzig, Germany, we are transported back in time to the Cretaceous period, approximately 155 million years ago, to witness the fossil skeleton of an extinct Brontosaurus excelsus. The Brontosaurus, a member of the Diplodocidae family, is one of the most famous and recognizable dinosaurs, known for its long neck, small head, and a whip-like tail. This particular species, Brontosaurus excelsus, was named by Elmer Riggs in 1933, and its name means "thunder reptile" and "excellent," respectively. The Brontosaurus is depicted in a lush, coniferous forest, surrounded by the remnants of ancient cycads. The forest setting is a testament to the diverse and complex ecosystems that existed during the Mesozoic Era. The Brontosaurus' massive skeleton, with its intricate bone structure, stands as a reminder of the incredible evolutionary history of life on Earth. The Brontosaurus' posture suggests that it was likely a herbivore, feeding on the abundant vegetation in its environment. Its long neck and tail would have provided it with balance and stability as it reached high into the trees to feed. The presence of marine creatures in the background, such as the marine reptile shown in the illustration, highlights the interconnectedness of various ecosystems during the Cretaceous period. This illustration, created by artists Hugo Wolff, Maage, and Wilhelm Bolsche, is a stunning representation of the prehistoric world and the fascinating creatures that once roamed the Earth. It serves as a reminder of the importance of paleontology and zoology in understanding the history of life on our planet.
