EDITORS COMMENTS
Cecil Aldin's captivating illustration, "The Mongolian Tarpan," transports us back to the 1930s and the icy landscapes of Russia. In this evocative image, we find ourselves in the heart of Tartary, the historical name for the eastern regions of Russia. The Mongolian Tarpan, a native horse breed, stands proudly against a backdrop of snow-covered mountains and trees, their thick coats glistening in the snow. The Mongolian Tarpan, also known as the Przevalski's Horse, is a rare and endangered breed, once native to the steppes of Mongolia and Russia. This illustration, created in 1933 by renowned British artist Cecil Aldin, offers a glimpse into a time when these magnificent animals roamed free in their natural habitat. The scene is set in the depths of winter, with snow gently falling from the sky, blanketing the ground and creating a serene, peaceful atmosphere. Two men, bundled up against the cold, approach the horses, their expressions filled with awe and wonder. The Mongolian Tarpans, with their distinctive stripes and robust build, seem to welcome the intruders with curiosity. This illustration not only showcases the beauty and resilience of the Mongolian Tarpan but also highlights the rich history and culture of the region. Cecil Aldin's masterful use of color and detail brings the scene to life, transporting us to a time when the connection between humans and nature was more profound. The Mongolian Tarpan, a symbol of the untamed wilderness, continues to captivate and inspire us, reminding us of the importance of preserving the natural world for future generations.
