When explorers returned to Europe with tales of fantastic animals, artists didn't always have the worldly context to visually interpret what they were being told. An animal larger than a horse with a horn coming out of its forehead that had magical properties? A rhinoceros became a unicorn. A terrifying animal with tusks, that swims through the water? A hippopotamus left everything below the water to the imagination. Same goes for a shark. Animal faces are hard to draw? Slap a human face on it. Give an owl lips. Cats and fish move too fast to draw? Human face. Can't find the face on a snail or a shark? Dog face.
All illustrations are based on manuscripts from the 8th-13th centuries, and were adapted as part of a tattoo design. Individual 5" stickers are on their way.
Partly glossy, partly matte finish. Printed to order.
This product is made especially for you as soon as you place an order, which is why it takes us a bit longer to deliver it to you. Making products on demand instead of in bulk helps reduce overproduction, so thank you for making thoughtful purchasing decisions!
