EDITORS COMMENTS
This hand-colored engraving depicts the Chamois, Rupicapra rupicapra, also known as the Alpine Chamois or Antelope Chamois. The Chamois is a medium-sized ruminant native to the European Alps and the Carpathian Mountains. This elegant and agile animal is well adapted to living in rugged and steep terrain, with a coat that provides excellent camouflage against the rocky backdrop. The Chamois is a herbivorous species, feeding on a variety of vegetation including grasses, leaves, and shoots. They are known for their remarkable agility and can leap great distances and climb steep cliffs with ease. They are also excellent swimmers and can cross rivers and lakes with ease. This engraving is from Edward Griffiths' The Animal Kingdom by the Baron Cuvier, published in London by Whittaker in 1827. The work is considered a seminal work in the field of natural history and zoology, and this particular plate is a testament to the meticulous attention to detail and artistic skill of the time. The hand-coloring adds an additional layer of beauty and realism to the image, making it a valuable and captivating addition to any collection of natural history prints. The Chamois is an iconic species of the European Alps and continues to be a popular subject in art and literature. Today, they are considered a success story of conservation efforts, with populations stabilizing and even increasing in some areas. This engraving serves as a reminder of the natural wonders that can be found in the mountains and the importance of preserving these precious ecosystems for future generations.
