EDITORS COMMENTS
This coloured engraving showcases the Kuhls pipistrelle, a fascinating bat species. Created by an unknown German artist in the 19th century, this print is now part of a private collection. The intricate details and vibrant colors bring this illustration to life, allowing us to appreciate the beauty of these nocturnal creatures. The artwork originates from "A Die SAaugthiere in Abbildungen nach der Natur mit Beschreibungen" a publication by Johann Christian Daniel von Schreber. This comprehensive work on natural history was published between 1774 and 1855, providing detailed descriptions and illustrations of various animals. The Kuhls pipistrelle, scientifically known as Vespertilio marginatus or Pipistrellus kuhlii, is depicted here with utmost precision. Its delicate wings spread wide open as it hangs upside down—a typical pose for bats during rest or sleep. The illustrator Sturm and engraver Bruch have masterfully captured every minute detail of its fur texture and facial features. Bats play an essential role in our ecosystem as they help control insect populations through their feeding habits. This engraving serves not only as a beautiful piece of art but also as a reminder of the diversity found within nature's creations. Displayed proudly by Fine Art Finder's Bridgeman Images collection, this print offers viewers a glimpse into the world of these enigmatic mammals while paying homage to both scientific exploration and artistic talent from centuries past.
