EDITORS COMMENTS
This handcolored engraving, created by Forget after an illustration by Oudart for Charles d'Orbigny's Universal Dictionary of Natural History published in Paris in 1849, showcases two fascinating creatures of the natural world: the American Alligator (Alligator mississippiensis) and the Common Wall Gecko (Tarentola mauritanica). The American Alligator, also known as the Common Alligator or the Mississippi Alligator, is a powerful and iconic reptile native to the southeastern United States. With its powerful jaws, armored body, and distinctive snout, this apex predator has long been a source of fascination and awe. In this image, the alligator is depicted with its mouth wide open, displaying its impressive set of teeth. Its scaled body is covered in intricate patterns, adding to its striking appearance. The Common Wall Gecko, also known as the Mediterranean Gecko or the North African Gecko, is a small, agile reptile native to Europe, North Africa, and the Middle East. This nocturnal gecko is well-adapted to living in various habitats, from deserts to forests, and can often be found in urban areas. In this illustration, the Common Wall Gecko is shown perched on a rocky surface, its body blending seamlessly with the background due to its excellent camouflage abilities. Its small size, elongated tail, and distinctive toe pads are all clearly visible. This beautiful and intricate handcolored engraving not only showcases the natural history of these two remarkable creatures but also highlights the artistic skill and attention to detail of the illustrator and engraver. The 19th century illustration continues to captivate viewers and remains an important contribution to the fields of herpetology and natural history.
