EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the Egyptian Fruit Bat, a remarkable creature captured in exquisite detail. Created by Raimundo Petraroja between 1863 and 1879, this colour lithograph is a true testament to the artist's skill and dedication. The image depicts a stunning illustration of the bat, showcasing its unique features and intricate patterns. The bat's wings are spread wide, revealing their delicate structure and impressive span. Its fur appears soft and velvety, with shades of brown blending seamlessly into each other. Published as part of the "Popular Zoological Atlas" by Giovanni Boschi, this artwork serves as both an educational tool and a work of art. It offers viewers an opportunity to appreciate the beauty of nature while learning about these fascinating creatures. The Egyptian Fruit Bat belongs to the Rousettus aegyptiacus species known for their fruit-based diet. With their large eyes and keen sense of smell, they navigate through dark caves in search of ripe fruits to feast upon. This print captures not only the physical attributes but also conveys a sense of mystery surrounding these nocturnal creatures. It invites us to explore further into the world of bats – mammals that often remain misunderstood or overlooked. Displayed in private collections worldwide, this artwork continues to inspire awe for its artistic merit as well as its scientific significance.
