EDITORS COMMENTS
This plate, taken from the extensive collection of pencil sketches and watercolour drawings of British mammals created by Dr. Edward Adrian Wilson between 1890 and 1910, showcases three remarkable Arctic creatures: the Lepus timidus, or Arctic hare; the Mustela erminea, also known as the ermine; and the Mustela nivalis, or least weasel. Each animal is depicted in stunning detail, with the Arctic hare's blue-tinged coat providing a striking contrast to the pristine snowy backdrop. The ermine, a small carnivore, is shown in its winter coat, which turns pure white, allowing it to blend seamlessly with the snow. This remarkable camouflage is essential for the ermine's survival in the harsh Arctic environment. In contrast, the least weasel, another small carnivore, is shown in its brown summer coat, which is marked with distinctive black spots. The Arctic hare is a herbivore that feeds on a variety of vegetation, while the ermine and least weasel are both carnivores that hunt for small rodents, birds, and eggs. The ermine is known for its distinctive behaviour of wearing the fur of its prey around its neck as a badge of honour. Dr. Edward Adrian Wilson, born in 1872, was a renowned British naturalist and explorer who dedicated his life to the study of mammals. His meticulous drawings and observations provide valuable insights into the behaviour and appearance of these animals during the late 19th and early 20th centuries. This plate is a testament to his dedication and passion for the natural world.
