EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Nine-Banded Armadillo, 1863-79" takes us back in time to the late 19th century. Created by Raimundo Petraroja, a talented artist of that era, this colour lithograph showcases his exceptional skills and attention to detail. The image depicts a fascinating creature known as the nine-banded armadillo (Dasypus novemcinctus). With its unique armor-like shell and distinctive features, this placental mammal has always intrigued both scientists and art enthusiasts alike. Originally published in "A Atlante zoologico popolare" an esteemed work compiled from the most recent works of Italian and foreign zoology between 1863 and 1879, this illustration holds historical significance. It is now part of a private collection but remains accessible for all to appreciate. The vibrant colors used in this lithograph bring the armadillo's intricate patterns to life. Every scale on its shell seems meticulously rendered, showcasing Petraroja's mastery over his craft. The level of realism achieved here allows viewers to marvel at the intricacies of nature while appreciating the artistic talent behind it. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece, we are reminded not only of our fascination with animals but also our desire to capture their beauty through art. This print serves as a timeless reminder that even centuries later, these creatures continue to captivate our imagination.
