This print showcases the intricate engraving of a "Skeleton of flying dragon" by an anonymous English School artist from the 19th century. Housed in a private collection, this remarkable piece was originally created as an illustration for J G Wood's book, "The Handy Natural History" published by the Religious Tract Society in 1886. The image transports us to a world where mythical creatures come to life through scientific exploration. The skeleton of this majestic flying dragon is meticulously depicted, revealing its fascinating anatomy and structure. Every bone and joint is intricately engraved with precision and detail, offering viewers a glimpse into the hidden wonders of nature. As we delve into this mesmerizing artwork, we are reminded of the boundless diversity found within our natural world.
