The German School of artists beautifully captured its essence in this vibrant colour lithograph from 1860. Displayed in a private collection, this artwork is part of "A Bilder-Atlas zur wissenschaftlich-populären Naturgeschichte der Säugetiere in ihren sämtlichen Hauptformen" a renowned publication by Leopold Joseph Fitzinger. Known for his contributions to zoology, Fitzinger's work aimed to educate and captivate readers with detailed illustrations like this one. The image features not only the Greater False Vampire Bat but also other remarkable species such as Megaderma lyra, Rhinopoma microphyllum, and Rhinolophus ferrum equinum. Each bat is meticulously depicted with intricate details that highlight their unique characteristics. Bats have long fascinated both scientists and art enthusiasts alike due to their mysterious nature and important role in ecosystems worldwide. This illustration serves as a testament to the beauty found within these often misunderstood creatures.
