EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving, titled "Eagle, 1850" is a remarkable piece of art created by Louis Simon Lassalle. Measuring 18x12 cm, this print showcases the majestic beauty of an eagle, a bird of prey that symbolizes strength and freedom. The artwork is part of the renowned "Alphabet du Jardin des Plantes" collection by Mrs. Louise Leneveux (Marie-Louise Pignot), which features 16 lithographs drawn by Lassalle and numerous woodcut vignettes. Published in Paris in 1850 by Mrs Veuve Louis Janet, this educational primer aimed to introduce children to the wonders of nature through stunning illustrations. Lassalle's meticulous attention to detail brings the eagle to life on paper, capturing its fierce gaze and intricate feathers with precision. The engraving reflects not only his skill as an artist but also his deep understanding of zoology and natural history. As we admire this exquisite piece from the private collection, we are transported back to the early nineteenth century when Europe was captivated by scientific discoveries and exploration. This engraving serves as a testament to both artistic talent and scientific curiosity during that era. Bridgeman Images has beautifully preserved this historical masterpiece for us all to appreciate today. It reminds us of our connection with nature while offering a glimpse into France's rich cultural heritage.
