EDITORS COMMENTS
In this chromolitho print titled "MONSTERS. The Chimaaera" we are transported back to the enchanting world of 1896, where mythical creatures and fantastical beings roamed the pages of P L Scalter's renowned book, "The Royal Natural History". Crafted with meticulous detail by artist Smit, this particular illustration showcases the awe-inspiring Chimera. As our eyes delve into the depths of this mesmerizing artwork, we find ourselves confronted by a creature that defies imagination. With its fearsome lion's head emerging from one end and a menacing goat's head protruding from another, it is clear that this hybrid beast embodies both beauty and terror in equal measure. Its serpentine tail coils sinuously beneath its muscular body as if ready to strike at any moment. The vibrant colors used in this chromolitho bring an otherworldly quality to life; every hue seems to dance upon the page with an ethereal glow. It is as though we can almost hear the distant roar of the Chimera or feel its fiery breath against our skin. This remarkable piece not only captures our fascination but also serves as a reminder of humanity's enduring intrigue with esoterica and paranormal phenomena. It transports us beyond reality into realms where legends come alive and mysteries unravel before our very eyes. As we gaze upon this timeless masterpiece preserved within TopFoto's archive collection, let us embrace its power to ignite our imaginations and fuel our curiosity about worlds unseen - for within
