EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the exquisite beauty and diversity of British wildlife. Titled "Common Shrew, Lesser Shrew & Water Shrew" this image captures a moment frozen in time from Thorburn's Mammals published by Longmans and Co around 1920. The vibrant colors of the lithograph bring to life three distinct shrew species - the Common Shrew, Lesser Shrew, and Water Shrew. Each one is meticulously detailed, allowing us to appreciate their unique characteristics and habitats. In this composition, we witness these tiny creatures thriving in their natural environment. The shrews are depicted amidst lush greenery, suggesting a serene woodland setting as their home. Their delicate features are beautifully portrayed with precision and care. This artwork not only celebrates the remarkable biodiversity found within Britain but also pays homage to Archibald Thorburn's talent as an artist. His ability to capture nature's wonders through his brushstrokes is evident in every detail of this lithograph. As we gaze upon this stunning piece, we are reminded of our responsibility to protect these precious creatures and preserve their habitats for future generations. It serves as a gentle reminder that even the smallest inhabitants play an essential role in maintaining ecological balance. Through Bridgeman Images' Fine Art Finder platform, we have been granted access to admire this extraordinary work of art that immortalizes these fascinating shrews forevermore.
