EDITORS COMMENTS
This coloured engraving from the 19th century showcases a Tarsier, an intriguing creature that dwells in the lush forests of Southeast Asia. The print is part of a renowned collection published by Felix Edouard Guerin-Meneville, titled "A Dictionnaire pittoresque d'histoire naturelle et des phénomènes de la nature" which beautifully captures various species and natural phenomena. The detailed illustration depicts not only the Tarsier but also other fascinating animals such as armadillos and click beetles, alongside insects like clothes moths. This diverse portrayal highlights the interconnectedness of different species within their shared ecosystems. The Tarsier itself is depicted with remarkable precision, showcasing its large round eyes and elongated fingers perfectly adapted for climbing trees. Its unique appearance has earned it comparisons to mythical creatures like kobolds or goblins. This particular print is now housed in a private collection, preserved for future generations to appreciate. It serves as a testament to the artistic talent of the French School during the 19th century and their dedication to capturing both scientific accuracy and aesthetic beauty in their engravings. As we gaze upon this exquisite artwork, we are reminded of the wonders that exist within our natural world – from tiny insects to elusive mammals like the Tarsier – each deserving admiration and protection.
