EDITORS COMMENTS
This coloured engraving showcases the Southeastern Four-eyed Opossum, a remarkable marsupial species native to South America. Created by an anonymous German School artist in the 19th century, this print is now part of a private collection. The intricate details and vibrant colors bring this illustration to life, allowing us to marvel at the unique characteristics of this fascinating creature. The illustrator Weber skillfully captures every feature of the opossum, from its distinctive four eyes to its delicate fur and long tail. Originally published in "A Die SAaugthiere in Abbildungen nach der Natur mit BeschreibungenA" by Johann Christian Daniel von Schreber, this engraving offers a glimpse into the natural history studies conducted during that era. It serves as a testament to both scientific curiosity and artistic talent. As we admire this piece, we are reminded of the diverse beauty found within our natural world.
