Long, long ago all animals int he world were wild. Some were timid and hid in the woods, and some were ferocious and dangerous. And so begins a journey of discovery as Dahlov Ipcar presents a wealth of feral and fierce animals trained by our early ancestors to the tame animals we know today.
Wild and Tame Animals was first printed in 1962 using a hand-picked color palette and traditional printing techniques. As Dahlov Ipcar's original lithographic plates were lost many years ago, Flying Eye Books has worked to faithfully restore and reproduce thr quality of the original art. Using modern techniques, our restorers have painstakingly picked out layers of spot color and re-mastered each brush stroke while keeping the integrity of the line. Wild and Tame Animals has been brought back to life in an edition worthy of the original classic.
