EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving from the 19th century showcases the South American painted-snipe and Chinese rhubarb in all their natural glory. The delicate hand-colored steel engraving, created by du Casse after an illustration by Adolph Fries, is a testament to the meticulous artistry of the time. The image features the elegant South American painted-snipe, also known as Nycticryphes semicollaris or Rhynchoea hilarea, alongside the vibrant Chinese rhubarb, scientifically referred to as Rheum palmatum. These two distinct species are beautifully juxtaposed against each other, highlighting both their individual beauty and their shared presence within nature. The engraving is part of Felix-Edouard Guerin-Menevilles' renowned Dictionnaire Pittoresque d'Histoire Naturelle (Picturesque Dictionary of Natural History), which was published in Paris between 1834 and 1839. This comprehensive work aimed to capture and document various aspects of botany, zoology, and natural sciences during that era. Through this print's intricate details and exquisite coloring techniques, viewers are transported back in time to appreciate not only these specific creatures but also gain insight into scientific methods employed during that period. It serves as a reminder of our enduring fascination with wildlife animals and plants while celebrating the artistic mastery behind such engravings. This enchanting piece from Bridgeman Images offers a glimpse into France's rich cultural heritage while showcasing its contributions to both art and science in the 19th century.
