EDITORS COMMENTS
This chromolithograph illustration, titled "Dorcatherium" by the renowned German artist and illustrator, Heinrich Harder, showcases an extinct type of chevrotain mouse deer. Dorcatherium, meaning "early Dorcas deer," is a prehistoric creature that once roamed the ancient forests during the Eocene epoch, approximately 50 million years ago. Heinrich Harder, born in 1858, was a celebrated German landscape artist and book illustrator, known for his meticulous attention to detail and his ability to bring historical and prehistoric creatures to life. In this illustration, Harder masterfully captures the Dorcatherium's delicate features, with its small, pointed antlers, slender body, and large, expressive eyes. The vibrant colors and intricate shading add depth and texture to the image, making it a true work of art. Dorcatherium was a small, herbivorous creature, similar in size to a modern-day mouse deer. Its antlers, while small, were an essential feature that distinguished it from its living counterparts. The Dorcatherium's extinction remains a mystery, with theories suggesting that it may have been outcompeted by larger herbivores or that environmental changes may have played a role. This illustration, published in Harder's book "Tiere der Urwelt" or "Animals of the Prehistoric World," was created in 1916 in Hamburg, Germany. It serves as a reminder of the rich history of life that has come before us and the importance of preserving the knowledge and artistry of the past for future generations.
