EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a vibrant and detailed illustration of a Red Platypus, created by the German School in the 19th century. The artwork is part of a private collection and depicts this unique creature with exquisite precision. Engraved by Johann Carl Bock, this piece originates from "A Die SAaugthiere in Abbildungen nach der Natur mit BeschreibungenA" published between 1774 and 1855 by Johann Christian Daniel von Schreber. The engraving beautifully captures the essence of the Schnabeltier (platypus) while providing valuable insight into its natural history. The Red Platypus, scientifically known as Ornithorhynchus rufus, is showcased against a backdrop that highlights its distinctive features. This rare mammal belongs to the monotremata order and possesses fascinating characteristics such as its duck-like bill and webbed feet. The fine details of this engraving bring to life every aspect of the platypus's appearance, making it an invaluable resource for those interested in studying these remarkable creatures. From its sleek fur to its intriguing physiology, this print offers viewers an opportunity to appreciate nature's diversity through art. Bridgeman Images presents this exceptional work from their Fine Art Finder collection, allowing us to marvel at both the artistic talent behind it and the beauty of one of Australia's most iconic animals - the Red Platypus.
