Created by Raimundo Petraroja during his active years between 1863 and 1879, this artwork is part of the private collection that has preserved its allure over time. The image belongs to "A Atlante zoologico popolare" an esteemed work compiled from the most recent contributions in Italian and foreign zoology. Published by Giovanni Boschi, this popular zoological atlas serves as a testament to humanity's fascination with nature's wonders. The photograph captures every detail of the centipede's segmented body, showcasing its numerous legs and delicate features.
