EDITORS COMMENTS
This coloured engraving by Heinrich Leutemann depicts a dramatic scene of Tasmanian tigers attacking sheep in their native Tasmania. The print, part of a private collection, showcases the artist's attention to detail and skillful rendering of wildlife in action. The image is taken from Die Welt in Bildern, a renowned publication from the 19th century that aimed to educate readers about various subjects through visual storytelling. In this particular illustration, Leutemann brings to life the intense struggle between these iconic Australian predators and their unsuspecting prey. The composition beautifully captures the untamed nature of Tasmania, with lush ferns and other native plants serving as a backdrop for this primal encounter. Amidst it all, a black swan gracefully glides across the water nearby, adding an element of tranquility amidst chaos. Tasmania's unique ecosystem comes alive through Leutemann's artistry - showcasing not only its diverse wildlife but also highlighting the delicate balance between predator and prey. This engraving serves as both an educational tool and a testament to Australia's rich natural heritage. As we admire this historical artwork today, let us reflect on our responsibility to protect endangered species like the Tasmanian tiger (also known as thylacine) and ensure that future generations can appreciate their beauty in person rather than just through prints like these.
