EDITORS COMMENTS
This handcolored engraving, created by Fournier after an original illustration by Meunier, showcases two fascinating European wildlife species: the European Badger (Meles meles) and the European Pine Marten (Martes martes). The image is taken from Charles d'Orbigny's Dictionnaire Universel d'Histoire Naturelle (Universal Dictionary of Natural History), published in Paris in 1849. The European Badger, a member of the weasel family, is depicted in the foreground. With its distinctive black and white stripes, this nocturnal creature is well-known for its powerful digging abilities, using its sharp claws to excavate burrows in which it seeks refuge during the day. European Badgers are omnivorous, feeding on a wide variety of foods, including roots, bulbs, insects, and small mammals. In the background, the European Pine Marten, a member of the weasel family, is shown climbing a tree. This agile and elusive creature is an expert climber and a skilled hunter, using its sharp claws and keen senses to navigate the forest canopy in search of prey. European Pine Martens are omnivorous, but their diet primarily consists of small mammals, birds, and fruits. This beautiful and intricately detailed engraving not only captures the physical attributes of these two animals but also highlights their unique behaviors and habitats. The work of Meunier and Fournier serves as a testament to the natural history of Europe and the artistic skill of the time.
