EDITORS COMMENTS
This hand-coloured lithograph from 1842 showcases the majestic Osphranter Antilopinus, also known as the Antilopine Kangaroo. Created by British artist Henry Constantine Richter, this portrait-style print measures 54.4x38 cm and is part of a private collection. The artwork is featured in "A Monograph of. . . Kangaroos" a publication that highlights various kangaroo species. With meticulous detail and vibrant hues, Richter brings this unique creature to life on paper. The brown tones beautifully complement the natural environment depicted in the background. Standing tall and proud, the Antilopine Kangaroo gazes directly at the camera with an intense yet gentle expression. Its posture exudes grace and strength, capturing the essence of this remarkable mammal. This mid-19th century lithograph showcases both artistic skill and scientific accuracy. The hand-colouring technique adds depth and dimension to every stroke, enhancing its lifelike quality. As we admire this extraordinary piece of artistry, we are transported back in time to witness nature's wonders through an artist's eyes. This print serves as a testament to both Richter's talent as a European artist and his dedication to portraying animals authentically. Whether you appreciate wildlife or have an affinity for historical prints, this hand-coloured lithograph offers a glimpse into the world of nineteenth-century natural history illustration—a true treasure for any art enthusiast or animal lover alike.
