EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a stunning watercolor painting titled "Homopus areolatus, before 1792" by Friedrich Wilhelm Wunder. Created on paper with watercolors, this artwork is part of the collection at Humboldt-Universitaet in Berlin, Germany. The painting was originally intended to be reproduced as plate XXIII in Johann David Schoepf's renowned book "Naturgeschichte der Schildkroeten mit Abbildungen erlaeutert Erlangen" published between 1792 and 1801. The subject of this exquisite piece is the Areolen-Flachschildkroete, commonly known as the Homopus areolatus tortoise. Intriguingly captured from underneath, this study beautifully portrays the reptile's unique features. The artist skillfully depicts every detail of its shell, plastron, and carapace with remarkable precision. This artwork not only serves as an aesthetic masterpiece but also contributes to our understanding of natural history. Displayed here by Bridgeman Images under eHumboldt Innovation and eHumboldt-Universitaet zu Berlin, this image represents a significant contribution to scientific illustration. It reminds us of the intricate beauty found within nature and invites us to appreciate these fascinating creatures that inhabit our world.
