EDITORS COMMENTS
This handcoloured lithograph showcases the Buru Flying Dragon, Draco lineatus (Draco viridis), also known as the Bourou Dragon or Bourou Lizard. The dragon is depicted in intricate detail, with its elongated body adorned with iridescent scales that shimmer in various shades of green and blue. Its wings, expanded in flight, reveal the delicate membranes that enable this unique reptile to glide between trees in its native habitat. The Buru Flying Dragon is a species of gliding lizard native to the Comoros Islands in the Indian Ocean. It is a member of the family Agamidae and is characterized by its long, membranous tail and elongated limbs, which are used for propulsion during flight. The species was first described by the French naturalist Rene-Primevere Lesson in 1830, and this illustration is based on a specimen from the collection of Georg Friedrich Treitschke's Gallery of Natural History in Leipzig, Germany. The lithograph is a testament to the remarkable natural history discoveries of the 19th century and the skill of the artist and craftsmen who brought these discoveries to life through art. The intricate details and vibrant colors of this print provide a window into the natural world and the wonders that lie within it.
