EDITORS COMMENTS
This lithograph captures a pivotal moment in history as young Mary Anning, aged only 12, stumbles upon the first Ichthyosaurus ever found in England. The artist, Charles Edmund Brock, beautifully depicts this significant discovery that would forever change our understanding of prehistoric life. In the image, we see Mary Anning standing on a picturesque beach at Lyme Regis. Her eyes widen with awe and excitement as she gazes down at the magnificent creature before her. Dressed in a simple yet elegant dress and wearing a bonnet to shield herself from the sun, Mary holds onto her basket filled with tools for fossil hunting. The scene is filled with an air of wonderment and curiosity as Mary's find marks a breakthrough in paleontology. The delicate engravings on the lithograph showcase every detail of the ancient reptile's form, emphasizing its significance as an extraordinary specimen. Mary Anning's contribution to science cannot be overstated. Despite facing numerous challenges due to her gender and social status during that era, she became one of the most renowned fossil collectors and paleontologists of her time. This print serves not only as a testament to Mary Anning's remarkable achievements but also reminds us of the importance of curiosity and perseverance in uncovering hidden treasures from our past.
