EDITORS COMMENTS
This chromolithograph illustration, titled "Dinotherium" by the renowned German artist and illustrator Heinrich Harder, showcases one of the most intriguing prehistoric relatives of the elephant. Dinotherium, also known as Deinotherium or Giganteum, is a extinct genus of large, elephant-like creatures that roamed the Earth during the Miocene epoch, around 15 to 11 million years ago. The most distinctive feature of Dinotherium is its downward curving tusks, which were significantly larger than those of modern elephants. These tusks were not only used for defense and digging, but also for stripping bark from trees to access the nutritious inner layers. Heinrich Harder's illustration masterfully captures the powerful and majestic presence of this prehistoric creature. The intricate details of the Dinotherium's wrinkled skin, textured ears, and expressive eyes bring the creature to life, transporting us back in time to the ancient world. Harder's "Animals of the Prehistoric World" series, published in 1916 in Hamburg, Germany, was a groundbreaking work that showcased the latest scientific knowledge of prehistoric animals. This illustration, in particular, is a testament to Harder's artistic skill and dedication to accurately depicting the natural world, both past and present. Today, Dinotherium remains an important part of the fossil record and a fascinating subject of study for paleontologists and historians alike. This illustration serves as a reminder of the rich history of life on Earth and the incredible creatures that once roamed the land.
