EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite hand-colored copperplate engraving showcases the intricate details of the Zebra Volute, Amoria zebra (previously known as Voluta zebra, Voluta lineata), a beautiful marine mollusk. The illustration was drawn and engraved by the skilled hand of Richard Polydore Nodder and published in William Elford Leach's Zoological Miscellany in 1814. The Zebra Volute is a large, spiraled shell with distinctive black and white bands, earning it its namesake. The engraving captures the delicate patterns and textures of the shell, with each band appearing as if meticulously painted on. The intricacy of the engraving is further highlighted by the use of hand-coloring, which brings the shell to life with vibrant hues. The Zebra Volute is a prized specimen in the field of conchology, the study of seashells, and this illustration serves as a testament to the beauty and intrigue of these natural wonders. The Zoological Miscellany was a significant publication in the field of natural history, and this illustration is a prime example of the high-quality work produced by its contributors.
