EDITORS COMMENTS
This historic print, titled "Buffalo, or American Bison, as figured by Buffon, from Bewick," is a fascinating glimpse into the natural history of the American Bison, or Buffalo, as it was known in the late 18th century. The image was produced by the renowned English natural history illustrator, Thomas Bewick, based on the descriptions and illustrations of the famous French naturalist, Georges-Louis Leclerc, Comte de Buffon. Buffon, who is considered one of the founding figures of modern biology, published his groundbreaking work "Histoire Naturelle, Générale et Particulière" between 1748 and 1767. In this monumental work, Buffon provided detailed accounts and illustrations of various species from around the world, including the American Bison. Bewick's print, created around 1790, is a testament to the influence of Buffon's work on European natural history. The image depicts a powerful and majestic buffalo, with its massive hump, shaggy coat, and curved horns. The animal is shown in its natural habitat, surrounded by the vast expanse of the American prairie. The print also includes a caption that identifies the animal as "Buffalo, or American Bison, as figured by Buffon, from Bewick," and provides some interesting details about the species. For example, it notes that the buffalo can reach a height of 6 feet at the shoulder and weigh up to 2,000 pounds. It also mentions that the buffalo is a social animal that forms herds of up to 1,000 individuals. This print is an important reminder of the rich history of natural history illustration and the role that figures like Buffon and Bewick played in documenting and preserving the natural world for future generations. It also serves as a poignant reminder of the once vast herds of buffalo that roamed the American plains, and the efforts that are being made to preserve this iconic species today.
