Easter Fauna
April 11, 2004
For Easter, I thought I would post a copy of Albrecht Dürer's famed illustration of a hare, which you can view in all its fineness by clicking through the small version to the left.
In tracking it down, however, I stumbled upon another Dürer previously unknown to me. Since it fits neatly into one of our established categories, and will please at least one regular reader, I offer it below. From the looks of it, a good graduate thesis could be written tracing the influence of Dürer on Beatrix Potter.
And a Happy Easter to you all.
Thanks for the excellent scurioli, George! I've already appropriated them for Squirrels in My Attic.

It certainly was pleasing! Many thanks and a flip of the tail.
