EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Aardvark, 1860 (colour litho)" takes us back to the 19th century when German School artists skillfully captured the essence of nature. Displayed in a private collection, this artwork is a part of Leopold Joseph Fitzinger's publication, A Bilder-Atlas zur wissenschaftlich-populAaren Naturgeschichte der SAaugetiere in ihren sAammtlichen HauptformenA from 1860. The image showcases an exquisite illustration of the Aardvark or Orycteropus capensis, also known as the great anteater. The artist's attention to detail brings this unique mammal to life with its distinctive features and characteristics. With its elongated snout and long tongue perfectly depicted, one can almost imagine this creature hunting for ants and termites. The vibrant colors used in this colour lithograph add depth and richness to the overall composition. It highlights not only the beauty of the animal but also emphasizes its importance within our natural world. Bridgeman Images has expertly preserved this historical piece through their fine art finder platform. As we gaze upon it today, we are reminded of both the artistic talent that existed centuries ago and our responsibility to appreciate and protect Earth's diverse wildlife.
