EDITORS COMMENTS
This vibrant and detailed print captures the diverse array of animals and plants that inhabit the majestic Alps. Created by the European School in the 19th century, this colour lithograph showcases a St Bernard dog, Marmot, Snow Finch, and Pine tree amidst a breathtaking alpine landscape. The illustration was originally featured in The Instructive Picture Book's second edition published by Edward Stanford in 1877. The image beautifully portrays the harmonious coexistence between wildlife and nature in this central European region. Lush coniferous trees with their sprawling branches provide shelter for various species while adding to the picturesque scenery. Snow finches gracefully flutter around, showcasing their resilience in adapting to high altitudes. The historical significance of this artwork lies not only in its depiction of flora and fauna but also its association with mountain rescue history. The iconic St Bernard dog is prominently displayed, symbolizing their role as lifesavers during treacherous snowstorms. This scene transports viewers into a world where mountains touch the sky and valleys hold secrets waiting to be discovered. It serves as a reminder of our planet's natural beauty and encourages us to appreciate and protect these precious ecosystems. Bridgeman Images has skillfully preserved this piece from private collection for all enthusiasts of wildlife, botany, science or simply those captivated by stunning landscapes to enjoy for generations to come.
