EDITORS COMMENTS
This handcolored lithograph showcases a collection of extinct marine cephalopod fossils, ancestors to today's squid and cuttlefish, discovered during the Jurassic period. The image is taken from Dr. F.A. Schmidt's seminal work, "Petrefactenbuch," or "Book of Petrification," published in Stuttgart, Germany, in 1855 by Verlag von Krais & Hoffmann. Dr. Schmidt's groundbreaking book introduced both specialists and the general public to the fascinating world of fossils and palaeontology. The intricately detailed illustration features various extinct cephalopod species, including Belemnites, such as Paxillosus, Digitalis, Canaliculatus, Acuminatus, and Pistilliformis. Also depicted are Actinocamax and other enigmatic forms. These ancient creatures once thrived in the Jurassic seas, leaving behind their fossilized remains as a testament to their existence. The meticulous handcoloring adds an extra layer of beauty and depth to the lithograph, making it a stunning addition to any collection focused on the history of palaeontology or marine life. This historical art piece not only serves as a reminder of the rich diversity of life that has existed on our planet but also highlights the crucial role that early scientific works played in shaping our understanding of the natural world.
