EDITORS COMMENTS
This historical print depicts an ancient German hunting scene, with a group of hunters boldly pursuing the majestic and powerful aurochs, believed to be the ancestor of modern cattle. The aurochs, represented here by the large, shaggy creature at the center of the image, was once a common sight across Europe and Asia, roaming the forests and grasslands from as early as the Pleistocene epoch, around 1.6 million years ago. The aurochs was a formidable beast, standing over six feet tall at the shoulder and weighing up to 2,500 pounds. With its massive, curved horns, thick coat, and powerful build, it was a formidable adversary for the early humans who hunted it for food, hide, and bone. This print, a testament to the rich history of human-animal interaction, offers a glimpse into the past when humans and aurochs coexisted. The hunters, dressed in animal hides and armed with spears and bows, are shown in a determined and focused stance, ready to take down their quarry. The scene is set against a backdrop of dense forest, with trees and undergrowth providing cover for both the hunters and the aurochs. The aurochs, unfortunately, is now an extinct species, with the last known individual believed to have been hunted in Poland in 1627. Its disappearance marked the end of an era in human history, leaving behind a legacy of fascination and respect for the ancient creature that once ruled the European landscape.
