EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisitely detailed hand-colored copperplate engraving depicts the Veined Tree Frog, Trachycephalus venulosus, also known as the Common Milk Frog or Merian Frog, in its natural habitat surrounded by tadpoles and an immature frog. The image is taken from Dr. George Shaw's seminal work, "General Zoology, Amphibia," published in London in 1801. Shaw, a renowned naturalist and artist, meticulously illustrated this frog species, capturing its intricate veining and delicate features. The Veined Tree Frog is native to Central and South America and is named for the distinctive webbing on its feet, which allows it to grasp tree branches with ease. The frog's skin is smooth and shiny, with a greenish-brown coloration that helps it blend into its leafy surroundings. The tadpoles, shown in various stages of development, are depicted with gills, indicating their aquatic phase. This engraving is a testament to the beauty and diversity of the natural world, as well as the artistic skill and dedication of Dr. Shaw and the engraver, Barnfield. The intricate details and vibrant colors bring the Veined Tree Frog and its tadpoles to life, offering a glimpse into the natural history of this fascinating species.
