EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases an intriguing jumble of Iguanodon bones, a herbivorous dinosaur that roamed the earth during the early Cretaceous period, around 140 to 110 million years ago. The specimen depicted here is known as The Maidstone Slab, and it was originally developed by the renowned British paleontologist, Gideon Algernon Mantell, in 1834. Iguanodon, a member of the Ankylopollexia suborder within the Archosauria class, was one of the first dinosaurs to be identified from fossilized remains. This dinosaur was characterized by its bipedal stance, long, curved claws on its hind limbs, and a distinctive crest on its snout. The Iguanodon skeleton displayed in this print is a testament to the anatomical intricacies of these ancient creatures. With a diapsid body plan, Iguanodon was part of the Diapsida subclass, which includes both dinosaurs and modern reptiles. Its skeletal structure reveals the complex anatomy of this early Euornithopoda, a group of dinosaurs characterized by their bird-like hips and limbs. Gideon Algernon Mantell, born in 1790, was a pioneering figure in the field of paleontology. He was instrumental in the identification and naming of several dinosaur species, including Iguanodon. Mantell's groundbreaking work laid the foundation for future discoveries and advancements in our understanding of dinosaur anatomy and evolution. This print, with its intricate details and historical significance, offers a glimpse into the fascinating world of dinosaur paleontology and the remarkable discoveries made during the early 19th century.
