EDITORS COMMENTS
This hand-coloured illustration depicts a wolf in an extraordinary setting, standing tall on its hind legs in front of a wooden building, much like a human. The wolf is dressed in a blue tailcoat and top hat, adding an air of sophistication to its wild appearance. Behind the wolf, a man in a red jacket stands with one arm raised above his head and a stick in the other hand. The intriguing scene, which is believed to date back to circa 1900, is part of Box 365, Miscellaneous Part 1, and is one of the many fascinating historical treasures available on Mary Evans Prints Online. Although the exact origin and context of this image remain a mystery, it offers a unique glimpse into the past and the way humans have imagined and depicted animals, particularly wolves, throughout history. The use of hand-colouring adds an additional layer of artistry and depth to the illustration, making it a must-see for anyone interested in history, folklore, or the natural world.
