Strange Turtles - A Captivating Glimpse into the Enigmatic World of Reptiles
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This intriguing coloured engraving, titled "Strange Turtles" offers a captivating window into the enigmatic world of reptiles. Created by an anonymous German School artist in the 19th century, this print is part of a private collection and hails from Friedrich Justin Bertuch's renowned "Picture Book for Children" (1790-1830). The artwork showcases an array of peculiar turtles, each with its own distinctive features and allure. From the Greek tortoise to the swamp-dwelling softshell turtle, from the strikingly patterned tabulata turtle to the fascinating matamata turtle with its unique snout, these creatures captivate our imagination. The engraving also introduces us to other amphibious wonders alongside these extraordinary turtles. Mud tortoises and common sliders join their shelled companions in this mesmerizing depiction of nature's diversity. Published by ePurix Verlag Volker Christen and now out of copyright restrictions, this print allows us to appreciate both its artistic merit and scientific significance. The intricate details captured by the skilled hand of the artist bring these remarkable creatures to life on paper. As we gaze upon this historical masterpiece from Bridgeman Images' Fine Art Finder collection, we are reminded that even within seemingly ordinary species like turtles lie hidden marvels waiting to be discovered.
