EDITORS COMMENTS
from "The Life and Habits of Wild Animals," a stunning 19th century illustration by the renowned artist Joseph Wolf, captures the raw power and intensity of a confrontation between two majestic rivals: a brown bear and a bison. Dating back to 1874, this image transports us back in time to the Victorian era, offering a glimpse into the natural world as it was then understood. The plate showcases the impressive size and strength of both animals. The bear, a member of the Ursidae family and the largest of the extant bears, towers over the bison, a powerful bovid and a member of the Bovidae family. The bison, with its massive hump and curved horns, stands its ground, ready to defend itself against the bear's attack. This illustration is a testament to the natural history of the day, documenting the daytime battles between these two powerful animals. The epithermal mammals, both placental and eutherian, represent two distinct branches of the Mammalia class: the Ursidae, or bear, and the Bovidae, or bovid. These animals, along with the rest of the Artiodactyla order, are part of the larger Theria group, which includes both placental and marsupial mammals. The intricate details in this illustration, from the individual hairs on the bears' coats to the textures of the bison's hide, bring these animals to life, offering a glimpse into their natural habitats and behaviors. The image serves as a reminder of the rich natural history that once existed and continues to inspire wonder and fascination in us today. Joseph Wolf's masterful artwork, with its intricate details and lifelike accuracy, continues to captivate and educate, offering a unique window into the natural world of the past. This image, taken from "The Life and Habits of Wild Animals," is a must-see for anyone interested in the history of natural history illustration or the natural world itself.
