EDITORS COMMENTS
This drawing by Alfred Waterhouse, created in the late 19th century, showcases an intriguing convergence of three distinct creatures: a dog, an owl, and an eagle. The image, which was designed for the ornamentation of the Natural History Museum in London, exemplifies the rich artistic detail and naturalistic accuracy that characterized Waterhouse's work during this period. Waterhouse, who designed the museum in the 1860s, was known for his innovative and imaginative use of architectural ornamentation. This drawing, created between 1875 and 1876, reflects his deep appreciation for the natural world and his ability to capture the essence of various animal species. The central figure of the drawing is a noble eagle, its sharp eyes fixed intently on the viewer, its wings outstretched as if in flight. To its left, a curious canine, likely a domestic dog, gazes up at the eagle with a mixture of awe and curiosity. To the right, a wise-looking owl perches on a branch, its large, round eyes fixed on the dog with a knowing expression. The animals are depicted in their respective taxonomic classes: the eagle, a bird of prey from the Accipitridae family, the dog, a mammal from the Canidae family, and the owl, a bird from the Strigiformes order. The intricately detailed illustration, which showcases the epitheria class, or the backboned animals, highlights Waterhouse's mastery of the natural history of the time. This drawing is a testament to Waterhouse's artistic vision and his commitment to capturing the beauty and diversity of the natural world. It remains a captivating work of art that continues to inspire and delight viewers to this day.
