EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the majestic presence of a hippopotamus (Hippopotamus amphibius) in all its glory. Created in 1775 by the Dutch School, this engraving is a remarkable work of art that showcases the intricate details and lifelike representation of this African animal. The image, originally produced by Barent de Bakker after a piece by Anthony Andriessen, has been later colorized to enhance its visual impact. The vibrant colors bring out the natural beauty of the hippopotamus, highlighting its unique features and adding depth to its form. Set against a plain background, the focus remains solely on this magnificent creature. Its massive size and powerful build are evident as it stands with an air of confidence and strength. Every line etched into the engraving portrays the texture of its skin and conveys a sense of realism that draws viewers into its world. With no people present in the scene, we are left to appreciate nature's masterpiece without any distractions. This artwork serves as a testament to both artistic skill and our fascination with wildlife. It reminds us of Africa's rich biodiversity and invites us to marvel at one of nature's most intriguing creatures. Ken Welsh's expert photography beautifully captures every detail, making this print an exceptional addition for any fine art enthusiast or admirer of wildlife alike.
