EDITORS COMMENTS
This coloured engraving, titled "Kinds of colubrids" takes us back to the 19th century when Friedrich Justin Bertuch's Picture Book for Children was published. The print showcases various species of colubrid snakes, a group known for their slender bodies and diverse colors. In this exquisite artwork, we can observe four distinct types of colubrids. First is the fearsome Natter-Arten or Common Lancehead snake with its striking pattern and intense gaze. Next is the elegant Japanese Natter, displaying a unique combination of vibrant hues that make it truly mesmerizing. The Schleppennatter follows suit with its long and graceful body adorned in beautiful earthy tones. Lastly, we are introduced to the enchanting Korallennatter or Coral Coloured Snake. Its vivid red scales resemble precious coral reefs found deep within our oceans, adding an element of mystique to this already awe-inspiring composition. The German School artist responsible for this masterpiece has expertly captured the essence and beauty of these reptiles through intricate details and meticulous coloring techniques. As we admire each individual snake depicted here, we are reminded of the incredible diversity present in nature's creations. This remarkable print from Bridgeman Images not only serves as a visual delight but also offers us a glimpse into historical scientific illustrations that continue to inspire fascination towards wildlife even today.
