EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving titled "Man in the Time of the Giant Bear and Mammoth" takes us back to a prehistoric era, where early humans coexisted with magnificent creatures such as bears and mammoths. Created by an English School artist in the 19th century, this print is part of a private collection. The illustration originally appeared in G. T. Bettany's book "The Worlds Inhabitants" published by Ward Lock in 1888. It offers a glimpse into the primeval world, showcasing our ancestors' struggle for survival amidst towering giants. In this scene, we see a group of prehistoric men navigating their way through an ancient landscape filled with megalithic structures and dense vegetation. They are depicted as strong and masculine figures, embodying the resilience required to thrive during that time. A massive mammoth dominates the foreground while black bears roam nearby, reminding us of the diverse wildlife that once roamed freely alongside our human ancestors. The artist skillfully captures these animals' power and majesty. The use of black-and-white adds depth to this historical depiction, emphasizing its timeless quality. This engraving serves as both a window into our past and a testament to humanity's enduring fascination with history. Bridgeman Images has preserved this remarkable piece of art from the 19th century, allowing us to appreciate its beauty today.
