EDITORS COMMENTS
In this illustration by Hugo Wolff-Maage, published in Wilhelm Bolsche's "Prehistoric Life" in 1932, we are transported back to the Late Cretaceous era, approximately 150 million years ago, where Archaeopteryx, the enigmatic transitional fossil between dinosaurs and birds, roams a lush Gingko forest. The Archaeopteryx, represented by two individuals, Archaeopteryx lithographica and Archaeopteryx siemensii, are depicted with their distinctive feathered bodies, long tails, and bipedal stance. The larger Archaeopteryx lithographica, with its wings spread wide, showcases the intricate arrangement of its feathers, suggesting its ability to glide or fly. The smaller Archaeopteryx siemensii, with its wings folded, appears more dinosaurian in appearance, emphasizing its close relationship to the Dinosauria. Surrounding the Archaeopteryx are various other prehistoric creatures, including the marine reptile Hesperornis regalis, a penguin-like bird with sharp teeth, and a regal-looking dinosaur, possibly a theropod. The forest is adorned with the distinctive fan-shaped leaves of the Gingko tree, providing a vivid backdrop to this snapshot of the ancient world. This illustration, a testament to the imagination and scientific knowledge of its time, offers a glimpse into the rich diversity of life during the Campanian age and the fascinating journey of evolution that led to the birds we know today.
