EDITORS COMMENTS
This coloured engraving, titled "Squirrels" showcases the intricate beauty of wildlife in the 19th century. The print, part of a private collection, is an illustration for Oliver Goldsmith's renowned book "A History of the Earth and Animated Nature". With its vibrant hues and meticulous details, this artwork transports viewers into the enchanting world of squirrels. The image features various species of these agile creatures, including the iconic grey squirrel and the elusive American black squirrel. From the common British squirrel to lesser-known ones like agiump squirrel and common ground squirrel, this engraving offers a comprehensive glimpse into their diverse biology. Rodents such as squirrels have long fascinated scientists and nature enthusiasts alike. This print not only celebrates their natural charm but also serves as a valuable historical document on mammalian species. It captures moments frozen in time when these animals roamed freely across vast landscapes. Through skilled craftsmanship and delicate strokes, this engraving brings to life each furry creature with remarkable accuracy. Every detail from their fur patterns to their expressive eyes has been meticulously etched onto paper by an anonymous English artist from that era. As we admire this exquisite piece from Bridgeman Images' collection, we are reminded of our connection with nature's wonders. It serves as a timeless reminder that even centuries ago, humans were captivated by the beauty found within our natural world.
