EDITORS COMMENTS
This coloured engraving, titled "Dugong" takes us back to the 19th century and showcases the incredible artistry of the German School. Housed in a private collection, this print is a true gem that captures the essence of nature's wonders. The engraver behind this masterpiece is A. Fleischmann, whose attention to detail brings each element of this composition to life. The image originates from "A Die SAaugthiere in Abbildungen nach der Natur mit BeschreibungenA" published by Johann Christian Daniel von Schreber between 1774 and 1855. This publication aimed to depict animals as accurately as possible through illustrations based on their natural habitat. In this particular print, we are introduced to the Dugong or Gabelschwanzseekuh - also known as sea cow or sea pig - which belongs to the family of manatees. The artist skillfully portrays its unique features and graceful presence underwater. With its elongated body and distinctive tail fluke, it effortlessly glides through its marine environment. This historic artwork not only serves as an illustration but also provides valuable insights into natural history and mammalian anatomy. Its intricate details make it a remarkable addition for enthusiasts interested in exploring our planet's diverse wildlife. Bridgeman Images has made this exceptional piece available through Fine Art Finder, allowing us all to appreciate the beauty captured within this enchanting engraving from centuries past.
