EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving, titled "Isard, 1850" is a stunning piece of art that showcases the beauty of nature and the meticulous skill of its creator, Louis Simon Lassalle. Measuring at 18x12 cm, this print is part of a private collection and holds significant historical value. The artwork originates from "Alphabet du Jardin des Plantes" an educational book written by Mrs. Louise Leneveux (Marie-Louise Pignot) in 1850. The book features 16 lithographs drawn by Lassalle himself, along with numerous vignettes on wood. Published by Mrs Veuve Louis Janet in Paris, this masterpiece offers insight into the natural history and zoology of France during the nineteenth century. Lassalle's attention to detail is evident in his portrayal of the Isard, a species native to Europe's mountainous regions. This engraving captures the grace and majesty of these animals as they roam freely amidst their natural habitat. As we admire this exquisite print from Fine Art Finder, we are transported back to a time when education was intertwined with artistic expression. It serves as a reminder that even within scientific texts lies immense beauty waiting to be discovered. Let us cherish this remarkable work for its contribution to both art and knowledge while appreciating Bridgeman Images' dedication to preserving such valuable pieces for generations to come.
