EDITORS COMMENTS
This handcolored engraving, created by William Lizars from a drawing by Colonel Charles Hamilton Smith, showcases the enigmatic Culpeo, also known as the Magellanic aguara fox or Canis magellanicus. Depicted in Sir William Jardine's Naturalist's Library: Dogs, published in 1839, this image is a testament to the rich natural history discoveries made during the Voyage of HMS Beagle. The Culpeo, a native of South America, is a wild fox species belonging to the genus Lycalopex and specifically identified as L. culpaeus. This agile and elusive mammal is found primarily in the Patagonian region, ranging from Chile to Argentina. With its striking reddish-brown coat, bushy tail, and pointed ears, the Culpeo is a sight to behold. During the historic voyage of the HMS Beagle, led by Captain Robert FitzRoy, the naturalist Charles Darwin made numerous observations and collected various specimens, including that of the Culpeo. Darwin's groundbreaking work, Zoology of the Voyage of HMS Beagle, documented the natural history of the new territories discovered during the expedition. This exquisite handcolored engraving not only serves as a visual representation of the Culpeo but also as a historical artifact, capturing the essence of a bygone era when natural history exploration was a grand and transformative endeavor. The intricate details of the fox's features, brought to life through the skilled hands of William Lizars and Colonel Charles Hamilton Smith, make this print a valuable addition to any collection focused on natural history or the history of scientific exploration.
