EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from Universal Images Group (UIG) takes us back in time to Amsterdam in 1644, where the Dutch translation of Pliny the Elder's Natural History was published. The woodcut illustration featured is none other than the mythical creature known as the Unicorn, or "Eenhoorn" in Dutch. The Unicorn has long been a symbol of enchantment and wonder, captivating both young and old with its majestic presence. In this artwork, we see a beautifully rendered depiction of this legendary beast, its graceful form captured with intricate details. Pliny the Elder, a renowned Roman writer on natural history who tragically perished during the eruption of Mount Vesuvius that destroyed Pompeii in 79 AD, included references to unicorns in his works. This woodcut image serves as a visual representation of his writings and adds an extra layer of historical significance to this piece. As we gaze upon this print, we are transported into a world where mythological creatures roam freely alongside humans. It reminds us of our fascination with ancient legends and our innate desire to believe in something extraordinary. Whether displayed for educational purposes or simply admired for its artistic value, this Unicorn woodcut from Handelene van de Natuere holds timeless allure and invites us to delve into the realms of imagination and fantasy.
