EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite handcolored copperplate engraving depicts a Sealion, Otaria flavescens, from Ebenezer Sibly's Universal System of Natural History, published in 1794-1796. Sibly, a prolific naturalist and publisher, produced this five-volume work covering the three natural worlds of fauna, flora, and geology. The illustration was created under the skilled hand of engraver Johann Ihle, who expertly captured the dynamic and powerful presence of the Sealion. The Sealion, also known as the Southern Elephant Seal, is a large marine mammal native to the Southern Hemisphere. With their distinctive long snout, large ears, and powerful limbs, they are easily recognizable. This engraving showcases the Sealion in its natural habitat, basking on the rocky shores of its coastal home. The intricate details of its fur, skin, and facial features are beautifully rendered in this historical illustration. The handcoloring adds an additional layer of depth and vibrancy to the image, bringing out the richness of the Sealion's coat and the textures of its surroundings. The meticulous attention to detail and the high-quality production values of this engraving are a testament to the dedication and expertise of the naturalists, engravers, and publishers of the time. This illustration offers a glimpse into the natural history of the Sealion during the late 18th century, providing valuable insights into the scientific knowledge and artistic techniques of the time. It remains an important historical record and a stunning work of art, showcasing the beauty and diversity of the natural world.
