EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving titled "L for Lynx, 1850" by Louis Simon Lassalle takes us back to the enchanting world of the 19th century. Measuring at a modest 18x12 cm, this delicate print is part of a private collection that cherishes its historical significance. The artwork originally appeared in "Alphabet du Jardin des Plantes" an educational masterpiece created by Mrs. Louise Leneveux (Marie-Louise Pignot) in collaboration with Lassalle. Published in Paris in 1850 by Mrs Veuve Louis Janet, this alphabet primer aimed to educate young minds about the wonders of nature through vivid illustrations and informative vignettes. In this particular piece, we are introduced to the majestic lynx - a wild cat known for its elusive nature and striking appearance. The intricate details captured by Lassalle's skilled hand bring out the essence of this feline creature, showcasing its powerful presence against a backdrop of natural elements. As we admire this engraving from the late nineteenth century, it serves as a reminder of how art can be intertwined with education and exploration. It transports us to an era when knowledge was disseminated through beautifully crafted visuals like these. Bridgeman Images has preserved this remarkable piece from history, allowing us to appreciate not only the artistic talent behind it but also its contribution to our understanding of zoology and natural sciences during that time period.
