EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the mesmerizing beauty of an Ocelot, Leopardus pardalis. The image captures the essence of this magnificent big cat as it gracefully prowls through the Gardens of the Zoological Society. Handcoloured to perfection, every intricate detail is brought to life in this copperplate engraving by Russell, based on an illustration by Horace S. Smith. The Ocelots in the Gardens of the Zoological Society are a testament to nature's wonders and man's fascination with these elusive felines. Their striking markings and piercing eyes make them a sight to behold, evoking a sense of awe and admiration. William Smellie's translation of Count Georges Buffon's History of Earth and Animated Nature serves as the foundation for this remarkable piece. Published in London by Thomas Kelly in 1829, it brings together artistry and scientific knowledge seamlessly. As we gaze upon this print from Fine Art Finder, we are transported into a world where natural history meets artistic expression. It reminds us that even within urban environments like zoos, there exists a delicate balance between preserving wildlife and appreciating their inherent beauty. Bridgeman Images has captured not just an image but also our imagination with this stunning portrayal of one of nature's most enigmatic creatures – the ocelot.
