EDITORS COMMENTS
This colored engraving titled "Cape Genet" takes us back to the 19th century, showcasing the remarkable talent of the German School. The print, now part of a private collection, is a true testament to the beauty and intricacy of nature's creatures. Illustrated by A. Schouman and engraved by Tyroff, this artwork originates from Johann Christian Daniel von Schreber's publication "A Die SAaugthiere in Abbildungen nach der Natur mit BeschreibungenA". Published between 1774 and 1855, this work aimed to depict animals in their natural habitat with detailed descriptions. The image portrays a Southern Grosfleck-Ginsterkatze or Cape Genet (Viverra tigrina/Genetta tigrina), belonging to the viverrid family. With its striking markings and elegant posture, this mammal exudes grace and mystery. Its blotched fur pattern adds an element of intrigue that draws viewers into its world. Through this engraving, we are transported into a realm where art meets science. It serves as both an educational tool for studying natural history and an aesthetic masterpiece that captures our imagination. Preserved by ePurix Verlag Volker Christen, this German artwork holds historical significance while remaining timeless in its appeal. As we gaze upon it today, let us appreciate not only the skillful craftsmanship but also the wonders of our planet's diverse wildlife.
