EDITORS COMMENTS
This handcolored copperplate engraving is an exquisite illustration of an African Zebra, or Equus zebra, from Ebenezer Sibly's Universal System of Natural History published between 1794 and 1796. Sibly, a prolific naturalist and publisher, created this five-volume work to document the natural world in the three domains of fauna, flora, and geology. The African Zebra, a magnificent creature native to the African continent, is depicted in this illustration with its distinctive black and white stripes. The intricate details of the zebra's body, from its pointed ears to its powerful legs and hooves, are meticulously rendered in this engraving. The artist, likely Johann Ihle, skillfully captured the zebra's agile and graceful appearance, making this illustration a true masterpiece of natural history art. The handcoloring adds an extra layer of beauty and depth to the engraving, bringing the zebra to life with vibrant colors. The background is kept simple, allowing the zebra to take center stage and captivate the viewer's attention. This illustration is a testament to the artistry and scientific accuracy of the time, providing a window into the natural world of over two centuries ago. Ebenezer Sibly's Universal System of Natural History was a groundbreaking work that showcased the natural world in a comprehensive and visually stunning way. This African Zebra illustration is just one example of the many fascinating creatures and plants that were documented in this work, making it an invaluable resource for natural history enthusiasts and scholars alike.
