EDITORS COMMENTS
This coloured engraving of a Javan Flying Squirrel takes us back to the 19th century, showcasing the exquisite artistry and attention to detail of the German School. The print, part of a private collection, is an enchanting representation of this elusive creature. The illustration was created by Huet and expertly engraved by A. Fleischmann as part of "A Die SAaugthiere in Abbildungen nach der Natur mit BeschreibungenA" published by Johann Christian Daniel von Schreber. This comprehensive work on natural history from 1774-1855 aimed to depict animals with accuracy and provide detailed descriptions. The Javan Flying Squirrel, scientifically known as Pteromys sagitta or Sciuropterus sagitta, is beautifully portrayed in this artwork. Its delicate features are meticulously captured - from its large expressive eyes to its distinctive furry tail that enables it to glide through the air effortlessly. This engraving not only serves as a visual delight but also highlights the importance of preserving our natural world. It reminds us of the rich diversity found within our ecosystems and encourages us to appreciate these remarkable creatures. Thanks to ePurix Verlag Volker Christen and Bridgeman Images' efforts in making this historical artwork available, we can now admire this stunning portrayal of nature's wonders.
