EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving from 1850 showcases a zebra in all its majestic glory. Created by Louis Simon Lassalle, also known as Cabaillot-Lassalle, this artwork is part of the "Alphabet du Jardin des Plantes" illustrated by Mrs. Louise Leneveux (Marie-Louise Pignot). Measuring 18x12 cm, it is now held in a private collection. The zebra stands tall and proud against a simple background, its distinctive stripes beautifully captured through the meticulous artistry of Lassalle's engraving technique. This piece was featured in an educational publication that aimed to teach children about animals and nature. Published by Mrs Veuve Louis Janet in Paris, this engraving was just one of many illustrations within the book. The intricate details and lifelike representation make it an invaluable resource for those interested in natural history or zoology. As we gaze upon this print today, we are transported back to the early 19th century when scientific exploration and education were at their peak. It serves as a reminder of our ongoing fascination with the animal kingdom and our continuous efforts to understand and appreciate nature's wonders. Thanks to Bridgeman Images' preservation efforts, we can still admire this remarkable piece of art that seamlessly combines beauty with knowledge.
