EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from the Liszt Collection showcases a remarkable encounter in the wild. In this mesmerizing image, we witness a Surinam caiman, most likely Paleosuchus palpebrosus, engaging in an intense battle with a South American false coral snake (Anilius scytale). The scene is beautifully captured by Maria Sybilla Merian and Peter Sluyter in their renowned work "Over de voortteeling en wonderbaerlyke veranderingen der Surinaemsche insecten" (On the reproduction and miraculous transformations of Surinamese insects). The hand-colored transfer engraving, dating back to 1719, transports us to the lush landscapes of Suriname. As we delve into this Dutch edition of "Metamorphosis insectorum Surinamensium" our eyes are drawn to the caiman emerging from its egg - Caiman crocodilus of the Alligatoridae family. The intensity portrayed on both creatures' faces captivates our attention as they engage in a life-or-death struggle. This snapshot freezes time and immortalizes nature's raw power. It serves as a reminder that even amidst serene surroundings, danger lurks at every corner. As we gaze upon this extraordinary print, let us appreciate not only its artistic beauty but also its scientific significance. Through Merian and Sluyter's meticulous observation and skillful rendering, we gain insight into the intricate world of these fascinating reptiles found
