EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the essence of a male tiger, Panthera tigris, in all its endangered glory. Taken in 1807 by William Daniell, this aquatint showcases the majestic creature resting on a river bank within the depths of the jungle. The image is part of a private collection and offers a glimpse into the world of wildlife conservation during that era. The male tiger featured in this print was sourced from the menagerie of Exeter Exchange in 1805, highlighting early efforts to preserve these magnificent animals. William Daniell's intricate drawing and engraving techniques bring out every detail of this endangered species, emphasizing its importance within natural history. As we observe this stunning portrayal, we are reminded not only of the beauty and power possessed by big cats like tigers but also their vulnerability as they face extinction. This image serves as an important historical artifact showcasing both scientific methods and British culture during the late nineteenth century. Through Florilegius' reproduction, viewers can appreciate not only Europe's fascination with exotic creatures from Asia but also recognize our responsibility to protect these precious animals for future generations. This print stands as a testament to our ongoing commitment towards wildlife preservation and reminds us that even centuries ago, humans recognized the need to document and conserve Earth's diverse fauna.
