EDITORS COMMENTS
This hand-colored copperplate engraving from Friedrich Johann Bertuch's "Bilderbuch fur Kinder" showcases four critically endangered marine species: the Bearded seal, Southern sea lion, Ringed seal, and Mediterranean monk seal. Each of these majestic creatures is depicted in intricate detail, highlighting their unique characteristics and beauty.
The Bearded seal (Erignathus barbatus) with its distinctive whiskers, the playful Southern sea lion (Otaria flavescens), the elusive Ringed seal (Pusa hispida), and the gentle Mediterranean monk seal (Monachus monachus) are all facing threats to their survival due to human activities such as habitat destruction, pollution, and overfishing.
This artwork serves as a poignant reminder of the importance of conservation efforts to protect these vulnerable species and preserve biodiversity in our oceans. It also reflects the scientific knowledge and fascination with zoology that was prevalent in 19th-century Europe.
As we admire this historical illustration, let us be inspired to take action towards safeguarding our precious marine wildlife for future generations to appreciate. May this image spark curiosity and appreciation for these magnificent animals while raising awareness about the urgent need for conservation measures to ensure their continued existence in our rapidly changing world.
