EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite plate features a detailed illustration of Phoca vitulina, the Common or Harbour Seal, taken from the collection of pencil sketches and watercolour drawings of British mammals created by Dr. Edward Adrian Wilson between 1890 and 1910. Dr. Wilson, a renowned naturalist and explorer, meticulously captured the essence of this marine mammal in this stunning artwork. The Harbour Seal, also known as the Common Seal or Harbor Seal, is a carnivorous eutherian mammal belonging to the order Carnivora, family Phocidae, and suborder Caniformia. It is one of the most widely distributed pinnipeds, found in the North Atlantic and Arctic regions. The Harbour Seal is characterized by its streamlined body, short, broad foreflippers, and the absence of external earflaps and visible ears. This agile and versatile marine mammal is well adapted to life in the water, with the ability to hold its breath for up to 30 minutes and dive to depths of up to 600 feet. Dr. Wilson's illustration showcases the Harbour Seal's sleek, smooth coat, which ranges in color from dark brown to light grey, with distinctive spots on the back and sides. The animal's expressive eyes and alert posture add to the captivating quality of this beautiful artwork. As a testament to Dr. Wilson's exceptional talent and dedication to the natural world, this plate serves as a valuable record of the Harbour Seal and a testament to the beauty and diversity of British mammals during the 19th century.
