EDITORS COMMENTS
This coloured engraving of a European Polecat 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 illustration from "A Die SAaugthiere in Abbildungen nach der Natur mit Beschreibungen" published by Johann Christian Daniel von Schreber. The artist behind this masterpiece is Johann Eberhard Ihle, while the engraver responsible for bringing it to life is Johann Nusbiegel. Their collaboration has resulted in a stunning portrayal of Mustela putorius, commonly known as the European Polecat or Forest Polecat. With its sleek black fur and piercing eyes, this mammal exudes both elegance and mystery. Its slender body suggests agility and stealth - qualities that make it an excellent hunter in its natural habitat. This engraving not only captures the physical features of the polecat but also offers insight into its behavior and natural history. Displayed against a white background, every intricate line and delicate shading adds depth to this remarkable artwork. It serves as a testament to the skillful craftsmanship employed during that era. Thanks to Fine Art Finder's dedication to preserving historical artworks like this one from ePurix Verlag Volker Christen's collection, we can appreciate these masterpieces even today. Whether you are an animal lover or simply admire fine art, this print will undoubtedly captivate your imagination with its timeless beauty.
