EDITORS COMMENTS
Capturing the essence of family life in the wild, this stunning print showcases a heartwarming scene of red foxes, Vulpes vulpes, gathered outside their den. The artist behind this masterpiece is Jacques Raymond Brascassat, whose attention to detail and skillful handcolored steel engraving bring these creatures to life. Taken from Felix-Edouard Guerin-Meneville's Dictionnaire Pittoresque d'Histoire Naturelle, published between 1834-39, this image offers a glimpse into the natural world as it was over a century ago. Printed by F. Chardon and displayed at Achille Comte's Musee d'Histoire Naturelle in Paris in 1854, it stands as a testament to both artistic talent and scientific exploration. The composition captures the playful interaction among the foxes as they bask in each other's company outside their cozy den. Their vibrant red coats contrast beautifully with the surrounding greenery, evoking a sense of harmony within nature. This artwork serves as an ode to zoology and natural history enthusiasts alike.
