EDITORS COMMENTS
The captivating print titled "Brown Rat, 1863-79" takes us back in time to the late 19th century. This colour lithograph, created by Raimundo Petraroja, showcases a remarkable illustration of a brown rat from the private collection of an unknown owner. Originally featured in "A Atlante zoologico popolare" a popular zoological atlas published between 1863 and 1879 by Giovanni Boschi, this artwork reflects the meticulous work compiled from various Italian and foreign zoology sources during that era. The image portrays a Wanderratte or Norway rat (Rattus norvegicus) with astonishing detail and precision. The artist's skillful use of lithography brings out the intricate features of this mammal - its sleek fur, sharp claws, and beady eyes - making it come alive on paper. This historical piece not only serves as an artistic representation but also provides valuable insights into the world of rodents. As one gazes at this illustration, they are transported to a time when scientific exploration was thriving and our understanding of nature was expanding rapidly. Now preserved by ePurix Verlag Volker Christen and made available through Bridgeman Images, this print allows us to appreciate both the artistry behind it and its contribution to our knowledge about these fascinating creatures.
