EDITORS COMMENTS
This coloured engraving showcases the Tasmanian Short-beaked Echidna, a unique and fascinating creature from the 19th century. The print, created by an unknown German artist, is part of a private collection and offers a glimpse into the world of natural history illustration. The intricate details captured in this engraving highlight the beauty and complexity of this elusive mammal. With its spiky coat and distinctive beak-like snout, the Tasmanian Short-beaked Echidna stands out as one of nature's most intriguing creations. The illustrator Huet and engraver Johann Carl Bock have masterfully brought this creature to life on paper. Originally published in "A Die Säugetiere in Abbildungen nach der Natur mit Beschreibungen" by Johann Christian Daniel von Schreber, this engraving serves as both an artistic masterpiece and a scientific record. It provides valuable insights into the anatomy and characteristics of these remarkable animals. As we admire this print today, we are reminded of our connection to nature's wonders.
