EDITORS COMMENTS
This coloured engraving titled "Abalone, 1833-39" takes us back to the 19th century, showcasing the intricate beauty of nature. Created by an anonymous French artist from that era, this print is part of a private collection and was originally published in a renowned work called "A Dictionnaire pittoresque d'histoire naturelle et des phénomènes de la nature" between 1833 and 1839. The image features various elements that evoke curiosity and wonder. The central focus is on the abalone shell, known for its vibrant colors and mesmerizing patterns. Surrounding it are illustrations of an olive baboon, also referred to as Anubis Pavian or Papio hamadryas anubus. These monkeys add a touch of liveliness to the composition. The engraving's attention to detail is remarkable; each stroke brings out the texture and essence of these natural wonders. It transports us into a world where land meets sea, where creatures like abalones thrive amidst oceanic beauty. Preserved by ePurix Verlag Volker Christen, this historical artwork reminds us of our fascination with animals and their place within our natural environment. As we admire this illustration today, we can appreciate how art has always played a vital role in capturing both scientific knowledge and aesthetic appreciation throughout history.
