EDITORS COMMENTS
This coloured engraving titled "Strange shrews" takes us back to the 19th century, showcasing a diverse collection of unique and fascinating creatures. The print is part of A Bilderbuch fAor KinderA (Picture Book for Children) published between 1790-1830 by Friedrich Justin Bertuch. In this artwork, we are introduced to an array of peculiar spitzmaus species. From the water shrew and Indian spitzmaus to the waterwurf and spitzmaus with a strahlrAossel, each creature possesses its own distinct characteristics that make them truly intriguing. Alongside these remarkable shrews, we also encounter other small mammals like mice and the muskrat of India. The level of detail in this engraving is exquisite, capturing every intricate feature of these animals with precision. The artist's skillful use of color adds vibrancy to the image, making it come alive before our eyes. Displayed in a private collection but now available through Bridgeman Images' Fine Art Finder, this print allows us to appreciate both the artistic talent behind its creation as well as the beauty found within nature itself. It serves as a reminder that even in seemingly ordinary creatures such as shrews or mice lies an extraordinary world waiting to be explored and appreciated.
