EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite hand-colored copperplate engraving showcases the captivating beauty of an Eastern fox squirrel (Sciurus niger). The squirrel in this image, from the collection of Mr. Jackson, boasts a striking contrast of colors. Its coat is primarily black, with a distinctive white patch on its face, around its eyes and nose. This coloration is not uncommon among Eastern fox squirrels, although they can also be found in various shades of red, gray, and brown. The Eastern fox squirrel is a native rodent species native to eastern North America. They are known for their agility and intelligence, and their bushy tails help them to balance as they move through their forest habitats. These squirrels are omnivorous, feeding on a variety of foods including nuts, fruits, seeds, and insects. This engraving was created by the skilled hand of Peter Brown, and is part of his New Illustrations of Zoology, published by B. White in London in 1776. Brown's meticulous attention to detail is evident in the intricate fur texture and lifelike expression of the squirrel in this print. This work is an important historical record of natural history, and a testament to the artistry of the past. The Eastern fox squirrel continues to be a beloved species, and is a common sight in many parts of its range. However, habitat loss and fragmentation are ongoing threats to their populations, making it essential to appreciate and protect these fascinating creatures.
