EDITORS COMMENTS
This coloured engraving showcases the majestic Barbary Sheep, a species native to North Africa. Created by an unknown German artist from the 19th century, this print is part of a private collection and offers a glimpse into the world of natural history illustration. The intricate details in this artwork are truly remarkable. The illustrator, Huet, and engraver Johann Carl Bock have masterfully captured the essence of these fascinating creatures. From their distinctive horns to their robust physique, every aspect has been meticulously depicted. Originally published in "A Die SAaugthiere in Abbildungen nach der Natur mit BeschreibungenA" by Johann Christian Daniel von Schreber (1739-1810), this print serves as both an educational tool and a work of art. It transports us back to a time when scientific exploration was intertwined with artistic expression. The Barbary Sheep, also known as Ammotragus lervia or Aoudad, exudes strength and resilience through its portrayal in this engraving. Its presence evokes admiration for nature's diversity and reminds us of our connection to the animal kingdom. Thanks to ePurix Verlag Volker Christen and Bridgeman Images' efforts in preserving such historical treasures like this print, we can appreciate the beauty of wildlife through art even centuries later. This image not only celebrates these magnificent animals but also pays homage to the skillful artists who brought them to life on paper.
