EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving from the 19th century depicts a chilling scene that unfolded in Strasbourg, France, in the year 1683. The image showcases a group of giant rats that were caught during this time period. With its historical significance and gruesome subject matter, this print offers a unique glimpse into the past. The artist behind this engraving is part of the German School, known for their attention to detail and accuracy. The private collection where this piece resides has preserved it for generations to come. These enormous rodents are truly awe-inspiring in size and appearance. Their presence evokes both fascination and fear as they lie lifeless on display. This macabre illustration was originally created for Georg Hirth's Kulturgeschichtliches Bilderbuch aus drei Jahrhunderten (Cultural History Picture Book from Three Centuries), published between 1881-1890. Strasbourg, located in Alsace, France, holds great historical importance as a city with strong Germanic influences throughout its history. This engraving serves as a reminder of the region's complex cultural heritage. As we delve into European history through art like this one, we gain insight into not only Germany but also France during the 17th century. It is an intriguing testament to humanity's ongoing struggle against nature's most formidable creatures - even if these particular giants have long since been defeated.
