EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a rare collection of coloured engravings depicting fascinating mammals from the 19th century. The artwork, titled "Rare Mammals" is attributed to the German School and is part of a private collection. It originates from Friedrich Justin Bertuch's renowned publication, "A Bilderbuch für Kinder" (Picture Book for Children), which was published between 1790 and 1830. The image features an array of intriguing creatures, including the Capsian anteater, spiny anteater, bear-like sloth, and an American giant in skeletal form. These enchanting illustrations capture the essence of these unique animals: Myrmecophaga capensis (Capsian Anteater), Myrmecophaga aculeata (Spiny Anteater), Bradypus ursinus (Bear-like Sloth), and Megatherium americanum (American Giant). Each engraving beautifully portrays the distinctive characteristics that make these mammals so extraordinary. From the sloth bear's gentle demeanor to the echidna's spiky exterior, this print offers a glimpse into nature's diverse wonders. Published by ePurix Verlag Volker Christen and now out of copyright restrictions in Germany, this historical gem provides us with a valuable insight into scientific exploration during its time. Whether you are an animal enthusiast or art lover, this exquisite engraving will undoubtedly captivate your imagination as it celebrates these remarkable creatures from centuries past.
