EDITORS COMMENTS
This 19th-century print showcases the majestic Tiger, Panthera tigris, a species that has unfortunately become endangered. The artwork, created by an anonymous French School artist, beautifully captures the essence of this magnificent big cat. The handcoloured steel engraving was meticulously printed by F. Chardon from Achille Comte's Musee d'Histoire Naturelle in Paris in 1854. The illustration itself was copied from Felix-Edouard Guerin-Menevilles' Dictionnaire Pittoresque d'Histoire Naturelle published in 1834. With its striking colors and intricate details, this print serves as a reminder of the importance of preserving our natural heritage. Tigers hold a significant place in Indian culture and are revered for their strength and beauty. This particular Bengal tiger represents not only the rich biodiversity found in India but also symbolizes the urgent need for conservation efforts to protect these iconic creatures. Florilegius brings us this remarkable image through Bridgeman Images' collection on Fine Art Finder. It is important to note that commercial use should not be associated with this photograph; instead, it serves as a valuable educational tool highlighting zoology and natural history. Let us cherish this extraordinary piece of art while recognizing the critical role we play in safeguarding these incredible animals for future generations to admire and appreciate.
