EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning handcoloured lithograph depicts a striped hyena, Hyaena hyaena, also known as Hyaena vulgaris, in its natural habitat. The image is taken from the Naturhistorischer Bildersaal des Thierreiches, or Natural History Picture Gallery of the Animal Kingdom, published by Georg Friedrich Treitschke in Leipzig, Germany, in 1840. The striped hyena is a large, powerful predator native to Africa, with distinctive stripes running down its back and legs. It is the largest of the three hyena species and is known for its versatile diet, which includes a wide range of prey from small mammals to large antelopes. The lithograph captures the hyena's distinctive features, including its elongated snout, powerful jaws, and prominent ears. The artist has also expertly rendered the intricate patterns of the hyena's fur, which serves as excellent camouflage in its savannah and woodland habitats. The image is part of a larger collection of natural history prints produced by Treitschke's gallery, which aimed to document and preserve the natural world through accurate and detailed illustrations. The gallery was renowned for its high-quality prints, which were produced using the latest lithographic techniques and hand-coloured by skilled artists. This particular print is a testament to the skill and artistry of the lithographers and colourists of the time, as well as a valuable record of the striped hyena and its natural history. Today, the striped hyena remains an important species in African ecosystems, and efforts are being made to protect it from habitat loss and poaching.
