This print from Science Photo Library takes us back in time to the 19th century, showcasing a collection of meticulously preserved animal specimens. Against a pristine white background, rows of glass jars proudly display an array of creatures that have been embalmed for scientific study and preservation. Each specimen represents a unique branch of zoology, offering insights into the diverse world of amphibians, reptiles, invertebrates, and arthropods. From delicate newts to intriguing lizards and even venomous scorpions, this historical snapshot encapsulates the wonders of biology during this era.
