EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving, titled "V for Vulture, 1850" is a remarkable piece of art by Louis Simon Lassalle. Measuring 18x12 cm, this print is part of the private collection and showcases Lassalle's talent as an engraver during the 19th century. The artwork originally appeared in "Alphabet du Jardin des Plantes" a publication by Mrs. Louise Leneveux (Marie-Louise Pignot). This educational book featured 16 lithographs drawn by Lassalle and numerous vignettes on wood. Published in Paris in 1850 by Mrs. Veuve Louis Janet, Libraire-publisher at rue Saint-Jacques, it aimed to educate readers about various animals found in nature. In this particular engraving, the focus lies on the majestic vulture - a bird of prey known for its impressive wingspan and scavenging habits. The intricate details captured through Lassalle's skillful hand bring this creature to life on paper. With its historical significance as an alphabet primer and contribution to natural history studies, this artwork holds immense value within the realms of education and zoology. It serves as a testament to both French artistry and scientific exploration during that era. Preserved through time, this print from Fine Art Finder allows us to appreciate Lassalle's craftsmanship while offering us a glimpse into the rich tapestry of European culture from the late nineteenth century.
