EDITORS COMMENTS
This chromolithograph illustration depicts the European cave lion, Panthera leo spenaea, an extinct subspecies of lion that once roamed the European continent during the Pleistocene epoch. The image is a masterpiece created by the skilled German artist and book illustrator, Heinrich Harder, in 1916. Harder's intricate and detailed illustration captures the power and majesty of this prehistoric creature, with its shaggy fur, piercing gaze, and prominent mane. The European cave lion was a larger and more robust version of the modern African lion, with a muscular build and powerful jaws. These lions were adapted to the cold European climate, with thick fur and shorter limbs to help them navigate the icy terrain. They were apex predators in their ecosystem, preying on large herbivores such as bison, deer, and horses. The European cave lion went extinct around 10,000 years ago, likely due to a combination of factors including climate change, habitat loss, and competition with other predators. This illustration serves as a reminder of the rich biosphere that once existed in Europe and the importance of preserving the natural world for future generations. Heinrich Harder's illustration is a stunning example of the artistry and scientific accuracy that characterized the Tiere der Urwelt (Animals of the Prehistoric World) series, published in Hamburg, Germany. Harder's work continues to inspire and captivate viewers today, offering a glimpse into the fascinating world of prehistoric animals.
