EDITORS COMMENTS
This print, titled "Mating animals (copper engraving)" takes us back to the 16th century with its intricate details and historical significance. Created by an anonymous European School artist, this copper engraving showcases a scene of two deer engaging in sexual intercourse. Part of the illustrious collection of Fine Art Finder, this print was featured in Eduard Fuchs' renowned book "Illustrierte Sittengeschichte von Mittelalter bis zur Gegenwart" (Illustrated History of Manners from the Middle Ages to the Present), published around 1910. The artwork captures a moment in nature where sexuality is beautifully depicted through the lens of Renaissance art. The image portrays a stag and fawn amidst a natural setting, surrounded by lush foliage. It offers insight into both wildlife behavior and human understanding during medieval times. This historic piece not only provides aesthetic pleasure but also serves as an educational tool for exploring cultural attitudes towards sex and relationships throughout history. As we admire this early twentieth-century masterpiece, it reminds us of our connection to nature's cycles and how sexuality has been celebrated across different eras. With its fine engravings and attention to detail, this artwork invites us to appreciate the beauty found within our ecosystem while shedding light on broader themes such as sexual identity, copulation, orgasm, and even sexology. Bridgeman Images preserves this remarkable piece that represents both artistic excellence and historical context—a testament to humanity's fascination with love, reproduction, and our place within the natural world.
