EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning hand-colored copperplate engraving from 1805 captures the beauty and diversity of four different equine species alongside a delicate night-primrose. The image features the endangered wild horse, Equus ferus, standing proudly next to its domesticated counterpart, Equus ferus caballus. Also depicted are the dziggetai or Gobi khulan, Equus hemionus luteus, a wild Asian donkey native to Mongolia, and the onager, another endangered species of wild ass.
The intricate details in this print showcase the unique characteristics of each animal, from the graceful curves of their bodies to the expressions in their eyes. The artist has skillfully captured these creatures in a moment of quiet contemplation, highlighting their strength and resilience in the face of environmental challenges.
Friedrich Johann Bertuch's "Bilderbuch fur Kinder" was an invaluable resource for children interested in natural history and science during his time. This particular illustration is just one example of his dedication to educating young minds through beautifully crafted images.
As we admire this historical artwork today, we are reminded of the importance of conservation efforts to protect these magnificent animals for future generations to appreciate and enjoy.
