EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite handcolored copperplate stipple engraving depicts two native Australian marsupials, the Long-nosed Bandicoot (Perameles nasuta) and the Southern Brown Bandicoot (Isoodon obesulus). The illustration is taken from Frederic Cuvier's "Dictionary of Natural Science: Mammals," published in Paris, France, in 1816. The illustration was painted by Jean Gabriel Pretre, a renowned painter of natural history at Empress Josephine's zoo, and later became the artist to the Museum of Natural History. The engraving was executed by Guyard, under the direction of Pierre Jean-Francois Turpin, and published by F.G. Levrault. The Long-nosed Bandicoot, with its distinctive elongated snout and pointed ears, is a nocturnal marsupial that inhabits the eastern and southeastern parts of Australia. They are excellent diggers, using their powerful forelimbs to unearth roots, tubers, and insects. The Southern Brown Bandicoot, on the other hand, is a smaller marsupial with a stocky body and short, bushy tail. They are found in the southern and western parts of Australia and are omnivorous, feeding on a variety of vegetation, insects, and small invertebrates. This beautiful engraving is a testament to the meticulous attention to detail and artistry of the natural history illustrators of the early 19th century. The intricate stipple technique used to create the textures and shading of the fur and the delicate handcoloring add depth and vibrancy to the image, making it a valuable addition to any collection of historical zoological illustrations.
