EDITORS COMMENTS
This image showcases George Stubbs' painting of a Yak of Tartary, scientifically known as Bos grunniens. The artwork was created based on Captain Samuel Turner's account of his embassy to the Court of the Teshoo Lama in Tibet in 1800. The painting was later reproduced as a copperplate engraving by Dell Acqua and hand-colored by Lazaretti for Giovanni Battista Sonzogno's Collection of the Most Interesting Voyages (Raccolta de Viaggi Piu Interessanti) published in Milan between 1815 and 1817. The Yak of Tartary, a large and sturdy animal native to the Tibetan plateau, is depicted in this painting with remarkable detail and accuracy. With its shaggy coat, long curved horns, and powerful build, the Yak is a quintessential symbol of the harsh and rugged terrain of Central Asia. The painting provides a glimpse into the natural history of the Yak, which was an essential source of food, transportation, and warmth for the local communities. The animal's ability to survive in extreme conditions made it an invaluable asset, and its image became a symbol of strength and resilience. This artwork is not only a testament to Stubbs' artistic skill but also a valuable historical record of a fascinating animal and its role in the culture and daily life of the people of Tartary. The intricate details of the Yak's fur, the texture of its horns, and the expression in its eyes all contribute to a captivating and lifelike representation of this remarkable creature.
