EDITORS COMMENTS
This 19th-century engraving, titled "Ceraste (snake of the viper family) beating a bird" showcases the intricate artwork of an unknown artist. The print is based on a drawing by the renowned French naturalist Lacepede (1756-1709), highlighting his keen eye for detail and scientific accuracy. In this mesmerizing scene, we witness nature's raw power as a Ceraste snake, belonging to the viper family, engages in a fierce battle with a helpless bird. The intense struggle between predator and prey is frozen in time through delicate etchings and precise lines. The engraving not only captures the beauty of these creatures but also serves as a testament to human curiosity about wildlife during that era. It reflects our eternal quest for knowledge about reptiles and their behavior in their natural habitats. Leonard de Selva skillfully photographed this remarkable piece from his private collection, allowing us to appreciate its historical significance today. As we gaze upon this image, we are transported back to the 18th century when such engravings were highly valued for their contribution to natural history studies. This extraordinary print invites us into an enchanting world where snakes reign supreme and birds fight for survival. It reminds us of both the fragility and resilience of life in nature while showcasing the artistic talent that brings it all to life on paper.
