EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving from the 19th century showcases a prodigious monster discovered in the mountains of Zardana, Spain in 1655. The image, part of a private collection, is a digitally cleaned version of an illustration featured in Mason Jackson's book "The Pictorial Press its Origins and Progress" published by Hurst and Blackett in 1885. The monstrous creature depicted here is truly awe-inspiring. With intricate details etched into the woodcut print, it brings to life a fictional character that both fascinates and terrifies. Its fantastical nature evokes wonder and amazement as we marvel at this fabulous animal. This engraving also serves as a reminder of the early days of journalism when newspapers were illustrated with woodcuts like these to captivate readers' attention. It reflects the rich history of pictorial press and its origins. As we delve into this intriguing piece, we are transported back to 17th-century Spain, where tales of extraordinary creatures roamed freely through people's imaginations. This European gem offers us a glimpse into an era filled with mythical beings and legendary stories. Bridgeman Images has preserved this remarkable artwork for us to appreciate today. Let your imagination run wild as you explore the depths of this prodigious monster taken from the mountains of Zardana centuries ago.
