EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving titled "I like Isard, 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 holds great historical significance. The artwork originates from "Alphabet du Jardin des Plantes" an educational book written by Mrs. Louise Leneveux under her pen name Marie-Louise Pignot. The book features intricate illustrations by Lassalle, including this particular engraving showcasing an Isard, or mountain goat. Published in Paris in 1850 by Mrs Veuve Louis Janet, Libraire-publisher on rue Saint-Jacques, this piece represents both artistry and education intertwined. It serves as an alphabet primer for young readers interested in exploring the natural world through vivid imagery. Lassalle's attention to detail shines through his masterful engravings, capturing the essence of each animal with precision and grace. In this specific work, he beautifully portrays the Isard against a backdrop reminiscent of its alpine habitat. As we gaze upon this remarkable print today, it not only transports us to a time long gone but also reminds us of the importance of education and our connection with nature. This engraving stands as a testament to the enduring power of art in enriching our understanding of zoology and natural history.
