EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the mesmerizing Fire Salamander, scientifically known as Salamandra salamandra. The artwork is a part of the seventh album with drawings of reptiles, amphibians, and natural history ensembles commissioned by Emperor Rudolf II in the late 16th to early 17th century. The print features an exquisite representation of the fire salamander in stunning detail. Above its name, which is written in three languages - Dutch, Latin, and French - lies another layer depicting six additional salamanders. This later print has been carefully pasted under the original drawing to enhance its visual impact. Created using various artistic mediums such as pencil, chalk, watercolor paint, ink, and engraving techniques on paper measuring approximately 90 mm by 171 mm (with the added layer measuring 166 mm by 136 mm), this piece exemplifies the meticulous craftsmanship prevalent during that era. Accompanying this remarkable artwork are explanations provided in Dutch, Latin, and French languages. These annotations offer further insights into the characteristics and significance of these fascinating creatures within their respective cultures. Preserved within Anselmus Boetius de Boodt's collection from Prague between 1596 and 1610; this image serves as a testament to both scientific curiosity and artistic excellence prevalent during Emperor Rudolf II's reign. Its inclusion among twelve albums dedicated to animals, birds, plants reflects a deep appreciation for nature's wonders that continues to inspire awe even today.
