EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite print depicts a Cat of Angora, a breed of domestic cat known for its long, silky, and lustrous coat. The image is taken from the renowned "Histoire Naturelle, Générale et Particulière" (Natural History, General and Particular) by Comte de Buffon, published in France during the late 18th century. Buffon's "Histoire Naturelle" was an ambitious and groundbreaking work, spanning over 40 volumes and covering a vast array of natural history subjects. The publication of this encyclopedic work marked a significant milestone in the history of natural sciences, as it was one of the most comprehensive works on natural history at the time. The Cat of Angora featured in this print was a popular subject among the European aristocracy during the 1780s. The breed originated in Ankara, Turkey, and was highly prized for its distinctive appearance and luxurious coat. The cats were often kept as exotic pets by the wealthy and were a symbol of status and refinement. The print itself is a testament to the meticulous attention to detail and artistic skill of the time. The Cat of Angora is depicted in a naturalistic setting, with its piercing green eyes fixed intently on the viewer. Its coat, which is shown in all its glory, is rendered in intricate detail, with each individual strand of fur clearly visible. This historical print offers a fascinating glimpse into the world of 18th-century natural history and the fascination with exotic animals, particularly the Cat of Angora. It serves as a reminder of the importance of preserving the natural world and documenting its wonders for future generations.
