EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases "The wild cat, Felis catus" in all its majestic glory. Created in 1834 by William Alexander Forbes, this engraving is a true testament to the beauty and power of these endangered animals. The handcoloured steel engraving by Joseph Kidd brings out the intricate details of the wild cat's fur and features. Featured in "The Miscellany of Natural History: Feline Species" edited by Sir Thomas Dick Lauder, this artwork captures the essence of natural history and zoology during the 19th century. It serves as a valuable scientific resource for those interested in studying wildlife and understanding our natural world. The image transports us back to a time when big cats roamed freely across Great Britain and Europe. With its piercing gaze and sleek physique, this wild cat represents not only an endangered species but also symbolizes the importance of conservation efforts today. As we admire this remarkable piece from Bridgeman Images' collection, we are reminded of the rich biodiversity that once thrived on our planet. It serves as a reminder to protect and preserve these magnificent creatures for future generations to appreciate their beauty firsthand. This print is more than just art; it is a window into history, science, and our responsibility towards nature.
