EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning vintage wood engraving captures the beauty and allure of the Green Edible Turtle, also known as Chelonia mydas. This majestic reptile was highly prized for its meat and was imported live into Europe as a table delicacy in the late 19th century.
The intricate details of this engraving showcase the natural elegance of this marine creature, with its vibrant green shell and graceful form. The image transports us back to a time when these turtles were considered a luxurious culinary treat, enjoyed by aristocrats and connoisseurs alike.
As we gaze upon this historical artwork, we are reminded of the complex relationship between humans and nature throughout history. The exploitation of wildlife for food has long been a contentious issue, with some species facing endangerment or extinction due to overharvesting.
Despite its controversial past, there is no denying the undeniable charm of the Green Edible Turtle as depicted in this print. Its presence on our walls serves as a reminder of our shared responsibility to protect and preserve these magnificent creatures for future generations to admire and appreciate.
