EDITORS COMMENTS
This hand-colored engraving showcases two fascinating mammals of the New World, the Six-banded Armadillo (Euphractus sexcinctus) and the Indian Pangolin (Manis crassicaudata), both depicted in intricate detail by the skilled hands of Edouard Travies and Fournier. The Six-banded Armadillo, also known as Dasypus sexcinctus, is a unique creature native to South America. With its distinctive six bands of armor-like plates, this armadillo is well-adapted to its environment, providing excellent camouflage and protection against predators. In contrast, the Indian Pangolin or Thick-tailed Pangolin (Manis crassicaudata) is a nocturnal, insectivorous mammal native to Asia. Known for its protective keratin scales covering its body, this pangolin is an expert at rolling into a tight ball when threatened, making it a formidable defense against predators. This beautiful engraving is an exquisite example of the natural history illustrations created by Charles d'Orbigny for his Dictionnaire Universel d'Histoire Naturelle (Dictionary of Natural History), published in Paris in 1849. The meticulous attention to detail and the vibrant colors bring these animals to life, allowing us to appreciate their unique features and marvel at their adaptations. As we observe the Six-banded Armadillo and the Indian Pangolin in this stunning engraving, we are reminded of the rich diversity of the natural world and the importance of preserving these remarkable creatures for future generations.
