EDITORS COMMENTS
This image is a plate from a collection of pencil sketches and watercolor drawings of British mammals created by Dr. Edward Adrian Wilson between 1890 and 1910. The featured mammal is the Red Squirrel (Sciurus vulgaris), a beloved and iconic species of the Eurasian Red Squirrels (Sciuridae), which is part of the larger order of Rodentia, or rodents. Dr. Wilson, born in 1872, was an accomplished British naturalist, illustrator, and anatomist, whose works were widely admired during the 19th and early 20th centuries. His meticulous attention to detail is evident in this beautiful illustration of the Red Squirrel, which showcases its distinctive red fur, bushy tail, and expressive eyes. The Red Squirrel is a Placental Mammal, belonging to the Eutheria, and is further classified within the Sciuromorpha and Sciurinae families. These agile creatures are known for their ability to climb trees and store food for the winter, making them an essential part of the forest ecosystem. This plate is a testament to Dr. Wilson's exceptional artistic skills and his deep appreciation for the natural world. His work continues to inspire and educate us about the diverse range of mammals that inhabit our planet.
