EDITORS COMMENTS
Plate 120: Erinaceus europaeus, the Western European Hedgehog, is depicted in this exquisite watercolor drawing from The Naturalists Library, Mammalia, Vol. 2 (1833-1843). The illustration, an original work by Sir William Jardine (1800-1874), showcases the European hedgehog in its natural habitat during daytime hours. This common hedgehog, also known as Erinaceus europaeus, is a member of the Erinaceidae family, which falls under the superfamily Erinaceomorpha, order Eutheria, and class Mammalia. Sir William Jardine, a renowned Scottish naturalist and zoologist, meticulously captured the intricate details of the hedgehog's quilled body, its pointed snout, and its expressive eyes. The European hedgehog is native to Europe, North Africa, and western Asia, and is easily recognizable by its spiny back, which it uses as a defense mechanism against predators. This illustration is a testament to the remarkable natural history knowledge of the 19th century, a time when the study of the natural world was a source of great fascination and discovery. The European hedgehog continues to be a beloved and iconic creature, inspiring curiosity and wonder in people of all ages. The watercolor drawing is part of The Naturalists Library, a comprehensive collection of natural history illustrations that documents the diverse range of life forms that inhabit our planet. This illustration, along with countless others, serves as an invaluable resource for researchers, educators, and anyone with a passion for the natural world.
