EDITORS COMMENTS
This handcoloured copperplate print, drawn and engraved by W. Panormo from William Smellie's translation of Count Georges Buffon's "History of the Earth and Animated Nature," published by Thomas Kelly in London in 1829, showcases two distinct species of hyenas, the Striped Hyena (Hyaena hyaena) and the Spotted Hyena (Crocuta crocuta), in the tranquil setting of the Gardens of the Zoological Society. The Striped Hyena, with its distinctive black and white stripes, is shown in a hunting pose, its keen eyes focused intently on the ground, while the Spotted Hyena, with its intricate pattern of spots, sits nearby, its ears perked up and alert. The natural history of these African predators was a subject of great interest during the 19th century, and Buffon's influential work provided a detailed and accurate record of their physical characteristics and behaviors. The print also includes a Spotted Hyena in the background, engaged in a playful interaction with a tortoise, its large paws delicately lifting the tortoise's shell. The inclusion of the tortoise adds an element of contrast to the scene, highlighting the diversity of the natural world. The meticulous attention to detail in this print is evident in the intricate engraving and the vibrant handcoloring, which brings the animals to life and captures their unique personalities. The peaceful setting of the Gardens of the Zoological Society adds a sense of serenity to the scene, making it a beautiful and intriguing glimpse into the natural history of these fascinating animals.
