EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving, titled "F for Pheasant, 1850" is a part of the renowned "Alphabet du Jardin des Plantes" collection. Created by Louis Simon Lassalle (Cabaillot-Lassalle) in the mid-19th century, this exquisite print measures 18x12 cm and belongs to a private collection. The artwork was featured in Mrs. Louise Leneveux's educational book, which aimed to teach children about animals through an alphabet primer. Illustrated with 16 lithographs drawn by Lassalle himself and numerous vignettes on wood, this particular engraving showcases the elegant pheasant as its subject. Lassalle's attention to detail is evident in his depiction of the bird's intricate feathers and graceful stance. The artist skillfully captures the essence of this game animal native to France and Europe, highlighting its natural beauty within the context of zoology. With its historical significance as an early example of educational material centered around natural history and zoological studies, this print offers a glimpse into both artistic talent and scientific exploration during the late nineteenth century. As we admire this remarkable piece from Fine Art Finder's collection courtesy of Bridgeman Images, we are reminded of how art can serve not only as visual delight but also as a means to educate future generations about our world's rich biodiversity.
