The historic image captures the Victorian era's fascination with the natural world and the scientific exploration of its wonders. Salvadori, a Count by title, was a renowned figure in the field of zoology, with a particular focus on the order of birds known as Sauropsida and the Phoenicopteriformes, which includes the flamingo.
