EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning print captures the beauty of two unique and endangered Australian species - the Banded hare wallaby (Lagostrophus fasciatus) and the extinct King Island wombat (Vombatus ursinus). The intricate details of these animals are brought to life through Charles Alexandre Leseur's illustrations from Peron and Freycinet's "Voyage of Discovery to the Southern Hemisphere" in 1807.
Handcoloured copperplate engravings from Friedrich Johann Bertuch's "Bilderbuch fur Kinder" showcase the incredible biodiversity found in Australia during this time period. The delicate coloring adds a touch of elegance to these already fascinating creatures, making them even more captivating to behold.
It is a reminder of how important it is to protect our planet's wildlife and preserve their habitats for future generations. These illustrations serve as a valuable historical record of species that may no longer exist, like the King Island wombat, highlighting the fragility of our natural world.
Friedrich Johann Bertuch's dedication to creating an encyclopedia for children filled with detailed engravings on natural history is truly commendable. This print serves as a testament to his passion for educating young minds about the wonders of nature.
