EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the Kangaroo Island emu, also known as the dwarf emu or l'emeu de Baudin, which is now sadly extinct. The exquisite hand-colored copperplate engraving by Friedrich Johann Bertuch in 1807 captures the beauty and unique features of this fascinating bird.
The illustration also includes a possibly extinct King Island emu, Dromaius novaehollandiae ater, adding to the historical significance of this piece. Charles-Alexandre Leseur's detailed depiction from Peron and Freycinet's "Voyage of Discovery to the Southern Lands" provides a glimpse into the natural history of these majestic creatures.
Friedrich Johann Bertuch was renowned for his encyclopedia for children, which featured over 1,200 engraved plates on various subjects including natural history and mythology. This particular image serves as a valuable record of an animal species that is no longer with us.
As we admire this artwork, we are reminded of the importance of conservation efforts to protect endangered species and preserve our planet's biodiversity. Let us cherish and learn from these illustrations as we strive to safeguard our environment for future generations.
