EDITORS COMMENTS
This coloured engraving from the 19th century showcases the magnificent Lowland Tapir in all its glory. The French School artist has skillfully captured the essence of this remarkable creature, bringing it to life on paper. The image is part of a private collection and was originally published in "A Dictionnaire pittoresque d'histoire naturelle et des phénomènes de la nature" between 1833 and 1839. This comprehensive work by Felix Edouard Guerin-Meneville aimed to document various aspects of natural history, including animals and insects. The Lowland Tapir, also known as Tapirus terrestris, is depicted alongside other fascinating creatures such as shipworms and click beetles. Its distinctive appearance with a stout body, short legs, and elongated snout is beautifully portrayed through meticulous detailing. Through this engraving, we are transported back in time to appreciate the artistry that went into capturing these incredible species. It serves as a testament to both scientific exploration and artistic expression during an era when knowledge about the natural world was expanding rapidly. Thanks to Bridgeman Images' Fine Art Finder platform, we have access to this exquisite print that allows us to admire the beauty of these creatures from centuries past.
