EDITORS COMMENTS
This image is taken from Sheet 6 of a series of posters created by the renowned English sculptor and naturalist, Benjamin Waterhouse Hawkins, in circa 1862. The poster showcases a vivid and intricately detailed illustration of two extinct animals of the nineteenth century: the Mammoth (Elephas primigenius) and the Hyaena (Crocuta spelaea). Waterhouse Hawkins, born in 1807, was a pioneering figure in the field of prehistoric animal reconstructions. His passion for natural history and artistic talent led him to create life-sized models of extinct animals based on the fossil records available during his time. This poster is a testament to his exceptional ability to bring these ancient creatures back to life through his illustrations. The Mammoth, a colossal elephant that roamed the Earth during the Pleistocene epoch, is depicted here with its massive body covered in thick fur and long, curved tusks. The Hyaena, a large and powerful scavenger, is shown with its distinctive spotted coat and sharp teeth, ready to pounce on its prey. The poster also features other extinct mammals of the nineteenth century: the Hippopotamus major, the Woolly Rhinoceros, the Cave Bear (Ursus spelaeus), and the Saber-toothed Tiger (Machairodus latidens). Each animal is depicted with remarkable accuracy and detail, providing a fascinating glimpse into the world of prehistoric animals. This poster is an invaluable historical document, offering a unique perspective into the scientific and artistic interests of the Victorian era. It serves as a reminder of the importance of preserving our natural heritage and inspiring future generations to explore the wonders of the natural world.
