EDITORS COMMENTS
This chromolithograph depicts the majestic European bison, also known as the wisent or wisentia, as illustrated by the renowned German artist and book illustrator, Heinrich Harder. The European bison is a large herbivorous mammal that once roamed the forests of Europe during the Pleistocene epoch. With shaggy, dark brown fur covering its massive body, this bison species is easily distinguished from its American counterpart. Heinrich Harder's illustration, titled "Tiere der Urwelt" or "Animals of the Prehistoric World," was published in 1916 in Hamburg, Germany. Harder, born in 1858, was a prolific artist known for his intricate and detailed illustrations of various animals, both extinct and living. This particular work showcases the European bison in its natural habitat, surrounded by lush greenery and towering trees. The European bison, scientifically classified as Bison bonasus, is one of the last surviving representatives of the ancient forest ecosystems that once dominated Europe. Unfortunately, this magnificent creature came close to extinction in the late 19th and early 20th centuries due to hunting and habitat loss. Today, conservation efforts have helped to restore the European bison population, with several herds thriving in Europe and beyond. As we admire the beauty and power of the European bison in this historical illustration, we are reminded of the importance of preserving the natural world and the creatures that inhabit it. This image not only serves as a testament to the artistic prowess of Heinrich Harder but also as a reminder of the rich history and diversity of the animal kingdom.
