EDITORS COMMENTS
This handcolored lithograph showcases three extinct gastropod species, Ammonites jurensis, A. hircinus, and A. radians, from the renowned Dr. F.A. Schmidt's Petrefactenbuch, published in Stuttgart, Germany, in 1855 by Verlag von Krais & Hoffmann. Dr. Schmidt's Book of Petrification was a groundbreaking work that played a significant role in popularizing fossils and palaeontology among both specialists and the general public. Ammonites are an extinct group of cephalopods characterized by their distinctive, spiral-shaped shells. The Ammonites jurensis, depicted here in a beautiful shade of blue, is a medium-sized species with a complex, ribbed shell. The Ammonites hircinus, illustrated in a vibrant red hue, is known for its large, flattened body chamber and delicate, wavy ribbing. Lastly, the Ammonites radians, shown in a rich green color, is identified by its radially ribbed shell and large, rounded whorls. This exquisite lithograph, hand-colored by skilled artists, offers a fascinating glimpse into the rich history of palaeontology and the captivating world of extinct marine life. The intricate details and vibrant colors bring these ancient creatures back to life, allowing us to marvel at their beauty and complexity, even as we reflect on their extinction millions of years ago.
