EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a fascinating array of objects and creatures, each meticulously detailed in black and white. From the delicate wax-candle to the majestic whale-fishing scene, every element tells a unique story. The weathercock stands tall against the sky, while the woodpecker pecks away at a tree trunk with precision.
The wheelbarrow and whippletree hint at daily tasks and laborious work, contrasting with the mysterious call of the whippoorwill echoing through the wilderness. A whitewasher diligently applies paint to a surface, while a window-shade flutters gently in the breeze.
Intriguingly, this engraving also includes references to astrology with symbols from the zodiac scattered throughout. The fierce wolverine prowls alongside these celestial signs, adding an element of wildness to this otherwise orderly composition.
Originally featured in Kantner's Illustrated Book of Objects in 1893, this print is not just an educational tool but also a work of art in its own right. It invites viewers to explore each intricate detail and appreciate the beauty found within everyday objects and creatures.
