EDITORS COMMENTS
This lithograph from Lorenz Oken's Universal Natural History, dating back to 1841, showcases the juxtaposition of two distinct species - the critically endangered gharial, Gavialis gangeticus, and the formidable Nile crocodile, Crocodylus niloticus. These ancient reptiles are depicted alongside fossil skeletons of an ichthyosaurus and Plesiosaurus dolichodeirus, offering a glimpse into prehistoric times.
The intricate details captured in this print highlight the complexity and diversity of nature's creations. The sharp contrast between the sleek form of the gharial and the robust build of the Nile crocodile serves as a reminder of both beauty and danger coexisting in our world.
As we marvel at these creatures frozen in time on paper, it is crucial to reflect on their current status in our rapidly changing environment. The label "critically endangered" attached to the gharial serves as a sobering reminder of our responsibility to protect and preserve these magnificent beings for future generations.
Through this historical artwork, we are transported back to a time when dinosaurs roamed the earth and mysterious sea creatures ruled the waters. It is a testament to human curiosity and fascination with all forms of life that have inhabited our planet throughout history.
