EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a stunning artwork titled "Blindworm (colour litho)" by the German School of the 19th century. The piece is part of a private collection and offers a glimpse into the world of amphibians through scientific illustration. Published in 1864 by Leopold Joseph Fitzinger, this image originates from "A Bilder-Atlas zur wissenschaftlich-populären Naturgeschichte der Amphibien in ihren sämtlichen Hauptformen". It features two fascinating reptiles: the common blindworm or slowworm (Anguis fragilis) and the Algerian cylindrical skink or erzfarbene Spindel-Skink (Seps chalcides, Chalcides chalcides). The intricate details and vibrant colors bring these creatures to life on paper, allowing us to appreciate their unique characteristics. From the delicate scales to their sleek bodies, every aspect is meticulously captured in this illustration. This artwork serves as both an educational tool and a work of art, showcasing the beauty found within nature's diverse creations. Through its depiction of reptiles and amphibians, it invites viewers to explore these often misunderstood creatures with curiosity and appreciation. Bridgeman Images has preserved this valuable piece from German history for all enthusiasts of fine art and natural sciences alike. As we gaze upon this print, we are reminded of our connection with nature's wonders while marveling at the skillful craftsmanship that brings them closer to our hearts.
