Framed Hippo Art for Kids

FramedArt.com presents you with framed hippo art for kids wall art, as well as more serious paintings that celebrate the African animal. Despite its short legs and fat body, it runs faster than humans and they are extremely dangerous when challenged or when their territory is not respected. Highly dangerous and aggressive, they are unpredictable and kill more people than lions or crocodiles. They spend most of the time in the water and only emerge at sunset, to feed on the grasses around the reverse.

Hippos were celebrated throughout history by various cultures and were a recurrent presence in artwork, with Egyptians depicting the god Set as a red hippopotamus. Modern artists took a different approach and the framed hippo art for kids prints have nothing menacing about them. Serena Bowman and Paul Brent feature them in several colorful drawings, where the hippo appears next to other African animals. There is no better way to teach children about the wildlife than by displaying posters and images featuring them in an amusing context.
