EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a coloured engraving titled "Pigs" by an English School artist from the 19th century. The artwork, part of a private collection, was created as an illustration for Oliver Goldsmith's renowned book "A History of the Earth and Animated Nature" published in 1864 by Blackie. The image beautifully captures various species of pigs, including collared peccary, Chinese sow, wild boar, capybara, and babirusa. These fascinating creatures are depicted with intricate detail and vibrant colors that bring them to life on paper. As we delve into this mesmerizing print, we are reminded of the importance of biology and science in understanding the natural world around us. Through Goldsmith's work and this exquisite engraving, we gain insight into the diverse mammalian species that have roamed our planet throughout history. The skillful technique employed by the anonymous English School artist is evident in every stroke of their engraving tool. Each pig appears so lifelike that one can almost hear their grunts and squeals echoing through time. This print serves as a testament to both artistic talent and scientific curiosity. It allows us to appreciate not only the beauty found within nature but also how art can be used as a powerful tool to educate generations about our rich biological heritage.
