EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning handcoloured copperplate engraving from Friedrich Johann Bertuch's Bilderbuch fur Kinder captures the beauty and danger of two venomous snakes - the Sahara sand viper, Cerastes vipera 1, and the black asp, Vipera aspis atra. These creatures are depicted in intricate detail, showcasing their unique markings and features.
The Sahara sand viper is known for its ability to blend into its desert surroundings with its sandy coloration, while the black asp stands out with its dark scales. Both species are labeled as vulnerable, highlighting the importance of conservation efforts to protect these fascinating reptiles.
