EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisitely hand-colored steel engraving depicts a Leopard Seal, Hydrurga leptonyx, also known as the Small-nailed Seal or South Seas Seal. The image is taken from Robert Hamilton's "Amphibious Carnivora," part of Sir William Jardine's Naturalist's Library: Mammalia, published in Edinburgh in 1839. The illustration was created by James Stewart and engraved by W.H. Lizars. The Leopard Seal is a large species of seal found primarily in the Southern Hemisphere, particularly in the Antarctic and sub-Antarctic regions. They are named for their distinctive spotted coat, which helps them blend into their icy surroundings. These seals are powerful swimmers and hunters, feeding on fish, squid, and crustaceans. The intricate details of the Leopard Seal's body are beautifully captured in this engraving. Its sleek, streamlined form is shown in mid-swim, with its powerful flippers propelling it through the water. The engraving also highlights the seal's distinctive spotted coat, which is more prominent in younger individuals. This engraving is a testament to the skill and artistry of the illustrators and engravers of the time. The use of hand-coloring adds an additional layer of detail and vibrancy to the image, making it a stunning addition to any natural history collection. The Leopard Seal remains an iconic symbol of the Antarctic region and continues to fascinate scientists and nature enthusiasts alike.
