EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving, titled "M N: Merinos -- Noctilion, 1850" takes us back to the enchanting world of the 19th century. Created by Louis Simon Lassalle (Cabaillot-Lassalle), this exquisite print measures 18x12 cm and is now part of a private collection. The artwork is featured in "Alphabet du Jardin des Plantes" by Mrs Louise Leneveux, also known as Marie-Louise Pignot. This educational masterpiece showcases 16 lithographs drawn by L. Lassalle, accompanied by numerous vignettes on wood. Published in Paris in 1850 by Mrs Veuve Louis Janet, Libraire-publisher at rue Saint-Jacques, this book offers a glimpse into the natural history and sciences of that era. In this particular engraving, we are introduced to two fascinating creatures - merinos and noctilions - within an alphabet primer context. The meticulous details captured by the artist transport us to a farm setting where a flock of sheep grazes peacefully under the watchful eye of their shepherdess. As we explore this image further, it becomes evident that education intertwines with nature's wonders. The inclusion of these animals serves not only as an aesthetic delight but also as an opportunity for young minds to learn about zoology and farm animals during their early years. Through its historical significance and artistic excellence, this print from Fine Art Finder allows us to appreciate both the beauty found in nature's creations and the importance of education throughout different periods in time.
