EDITORS COMMENTS
This coloured engraving, titled "Honey Badger" takes us back to the 19th century German School of art. Housed in a private collection, this print showcases the incredible talent and attention to detail of its illustrator, Kretsch, and engraver Johann Friedrich Volkart. The artwork is part of a larger publication called "A Die Säugetiere in Abbildungen nach der Natur mit Beschreibungen" by Johann Christian Daniel von Schreber. Published between 1774 and 1855, this comprehensive work aimed to depict various animals with accuracy and accompanied them with detailed descriptions. The subject matter here is the fascinating Honey Badger or Mellivora capensis. Known for their tenacity and fearless nature, these mammals have captured human curiosity for centuries. The illustration beautifully captures the essence of this creature's appearance and character. With meticulous lines and vibrant colours, the artist brings out every intricate detail of the honey badger's fur texture while highlighting its distinctive markings. This engraving not only serves as an aesthetic delight but also provides valuable insights into natural history. Preserved by ePurix Verlag Volker Christen today, this piece reminds us of our fascination with wildlife throughout history. It stands as a testament to both artistic skill and scientific exploration—a true gem from Bridgeman Images' vast collection that continues to inspire awe even after centuries have passed.
