EDITORS COMMENTS
This coloured engraving, titled "Centipede, 1833-39" transports us back to the 19th century and showcases the exquisite artistry of the French School. The print is part of a private collection and originates from a renowned publication called "A Dictionnaire pittoresque d'histoire naturelle et des phénomènes de la nature" published by Felix Edouard Guérin-Méneville between 1833 and 1839. The artwork depicts a mesmerizing centipede with intricate details that highlight its unique anatomy. The vibrant colors used in this engraving bring the creature to life, allowing us to appreciate its beauty even more. This particular print falls under the category of myriapods, which includes both centipedes and millipedes. Created using an ancient technique known as stahlstich or steel engraving, this illustration exemplifies the skillful craftsmanship prevalent during that era. It serves as a testament to how artists were able to capture nature's wonders through their meticulous engravings. Now preserved by ePurix Verlag Volker Christen, this piece has become an invaluable historical artifact. As it is out of copyright, we are fortunate enough to be able to admire it today without any restrictions on its use. Bridgeman Images has made this remarkable image available through Fine Art Finder for all art enthusiasts who wish to delve into the world of animals and insects portrayed in stunning illustrations like these.
