EDITORS COMMENTS
The print titled "U like Unau, 1850" captures an enchanting engraving by Louis Simon Lassalle. Measuring 18x12 cm, this exquisite piece belongs to a private collection and is part of the renowned "Alphabet du Jardin des Plantes". Illustrated with meticulous detail, it showcases the letter U in the form of an Unau, a type of sloth. Created as an educational tool for children, this alphabet primer was authored by Mrs. Louise Leneveux and published in Paris in 1850. The book features sixteen lithographs drawn by Lassalle himself, accompanied by numerous wood vignettes. It served as a delightful means to introduce young minds to the wonders of nature and zoology. Lassalle's skillful engraving brings the Unau to life on paper. With intricate lines and shading techniques, he captures every nuance of this fascinating creature's appearance. The black-and-white composition adds depth and elegance to the artwork while emphasizing its scientific nature. This image not only reflects France's rich history but also represents Europe's enduring fascination with natural sciences during the nineteenth century. As we gaze upon this remarkable engraving today, we are transported back in time to a period when education was intertwined with artistry. Bridgeman Images has expertly preserved this historical gem through their high-quality print reproduction. By sharing it with us through Fine Art Finder, they allow us to appreciate both Lassalle's talent as an engraver and his contribution to early education in France.
