EDITORS COMMENTS
This coloured engraving captures the essence of a Nine-banded Armadillo, showcasing its unique features and intricate details. Created by the German School in the 19th century, this print is now part of a private collection, adding to its exclusivity and historical value. The illustration was skillfully executed by Kretsch, while Johann Sebastian Leitner expertly engraved it. The artwork originates from "A Die SAaugthiere in Abbildungen nach der Natur mit BeschreibungenA" a publication by Johann Christian Daniel von Schreber (1739-1810), renowned for his contributions to natural history. The image portrays the Neunbinden-GAorteltier or Nine-banded Armadillo (Dasypus novemcinctus) with remarkable accuracy. Its armored body and distinctive nine bands are meticulously depicted, highlighting both its beauty and resilience as an animal species. This engraving serves as a testament to the rich tradition of scientific illustration during that era. It not only showcases the artistic talent of its creators but also provides valuable insight into our understanding of these fascinating creatures. Now preserved by ePurix Verlag Volker Christen, this print continues to captivate viewers with its timeless charm. As we admire this piece today, we can appreciate both the artistry behind it and the significance it holds within natural history documentation.
