EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning hand-colored copperplate engraving, created by the skilled hands of John Lewin and Henry Kearsley, showcases two iconic Australian marsupials: the Red Kangaroo (Macropus rufus) and the Woolly Kangaroo (Macropus lanigerus). The image, taken from Edward Griffiths' seminal work "The Animal Kingdom" by the Baron Cuvier, published in London by Whittaker in 1827, offers a captivating glimpse into the natural history of these remarkable animals. The Red Kangaroo, depicted on the left, is the largest living marsupial species. With its powerful hind legs and long, muscular tail, it is well-adapted for hopping at impressive speeds up to 44 miles per hour. The reddish-brown fur of this marsupial contrasts beautifully with its dark, expressive eyes and the pale underbelly. On the right, the Woolly Kangaroo, also known as the Grass Kangaroo, can be found. This marsupial is easily distinguished by its thick, woolly coat, which helps it blend in with the grassy environments it inhabits. The Woolly Kangaroo is smaller than its Red counterpart, with a more slender build and a shorter, less muscular tail. This exquisite illustration, a testament to the artistry and scientific curiosity of the time, not only captures the physical attributes of these animals but also invites us to appreciate the rich biodiversity of the natural world. The intricate details and vibrant colors bring these marsupials to life, transporting us to the vast landscapes of Australia and offering a glimpse into the lives of these fascinating creatures.
