This stunning print captures the intricate artwork of a Yellow-throated marten, showcasing its beauty and unique features. The artwork, titled C016 / 5897, is part of a collection of drawings from Nepal created by Bryan Houghton Hodgson between 1818 and 1858. The Yellow-throated marten (Martes flavigula) is depicted in exquisite detail, with every line and shading meticulously captured by Hodgson's skilled hand. This Victorian-era illustration showcases the artist's deep understanding of zoology and his passion for capturing the essence of these magnificent creatures. The pencil sketch highlights the anatomy of this Asian mammal, emphasizing its mustelid characteristics such as its paw, claw, and weasel-like appearance. Native to the Himalayan region, this carnivorous mammal belongs to the Mustelidae family and is known for its vibrant yellow throat. This remarkable piece provides a glimpse into nature's wonders during the 19th century when scientific exploration was at its peak. The attention to detail in this biological study reflects both artistic talent and scientific curiosity. Displayed against a backdrop reminiscent of watercolor paintings, this print serves as a testament to Bryan Houghton Hodgson's contribution to wildlife artistry. Preserved within the Natural History Museum in London, it stands as an enduring tribute to one man's dedication to documenting Earth's diverse fauna through meticulous illustrations like this portrayal of the Yellow-throated marten.
