EDITORS COMMENTS
This 19th-century engraving, titled "Calf cow - 'Alphabet illustrates animals" takes us back in time to a bygone era of educational illustration. Created by the talented artist Edouard Travies, this print is part of a larger work that combines both a syllabary and an illustrated abecedary. With each letter of the alphabet, we are treated to a delightful depiction of various animals, accompanied by a corresponding text. The intricate details and vibrant colors bring these creatures to life on the page. The engraving showcases Travies' skillful hand and attention to anatomical accuracy. It is evident that great care was taken in capturing the essence of each animal portrayed. As we explore this enchanting piece further, we discover that it was published by Garnier Freres, esteemed bookseller-publishers based in Paris during the 19th century. The engravings were meticulously crafted by Lefman, adding another layer of artistry to this already remarkable work. This particular image focuses on a young calf cow, exuding innocence and charm with its gentle gaze and endearing features. It serves as a testament not only to the beauty found within nature but also as an educational tool for those seeking knowledge about different species. Preserved within private collections over time, this print now finds itself under the watchful eye of Duvallon's lens. Its presence reminds us of our connection with history and how art can transcend centuries while still evoking wonderment and admiration
