EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite hand-colored copperplate engraving showcases two fascinating species from the natural world: the Salamander and the Indian Chameleon. The Salamander, depicted on the left, is a type of amphibian, characterized by its moist, smooth skin and long, slender body. Salamanders are known for their ability to regenerate lost limbs and breathe through both their lungs and their skin. In this illustration, the Salamander is shown with its distinctive red and black coloration, a common trait among some species. On the right, the Indian Chameleon, scientifically known as Chamaeleo zeylanicus, is displayed. This reptile is a member of the Chameleon family, renowned for its remarkable ability to change color to blend in with its surroundings. The Indian Chameleon is native to the Indian subcontinent and is characterized by its long, sticky tongue, which it uses to capture insects and other prey. The intricate details of their scales, textures, and colors are beautifully captured in this engraving, making it a true testament to the artistry and scientific curiosity of the time. This illustration is an excerpt from Georg Wolfgang Knorr's Deliciae Naturae Selectae, a series of hand-colored copperplate engravings that were part of the Kabinet van Zeldzaamheden der Natuur, or Wunderkammer, or Cabinet of Curiosities, owned by P.L. Muller and D. Rudolph. The illustration itself is a masterpiece, providing a glimpse into the natural world of the 18th century and showcasing the intricacies and wonders of these two unique creatures.
