EDITORS COMMENTS

Created by an unknown German artist from the 19th century, this print is now part of a private collection. The intricate details and vibrant colors bring this magnificent creature to life. The engraver Tyroff skillfully captured the essence of this remarkable seal species, known scientifically as Phoca leonina or Mirounga leonina. Published in Johann Christian Daniel von Schreber's renowned work "A Die SAaugthiere in Abbildungen nach der Natur mit BeschreibungenA" which spanned from 1774 to 1855, this illustration provides valuable insights into the natural history of these fascinating animals.
