This reproduction accurately illustrates four specimens of the American flying squirrel captured in their wooded environment. Taken from the Dictionnaire Universel d'Histoire Naturelle, this naturalistic plate depicts these flying squirrels in full movement, climbing or gliding. The color palette of browns, beiges, and greens emphasizes the realism of this 19th-century zoological study.
Produced under the direction of Charles d'Orbigny between 1841 and 1849, this engraving is a masterpiece of the scientific synthesis of the era. The graphic style favors anatomical clarity and ecological staging, reflecting the encyclopedic intention to document the diversity of mammals with great artistic finesse.
This vintage print forms an ideal complement for a decoration centered around wildlife and wild nature. It is aimed at zoology enthusiasts and collectors of naturalistic images wishing to introduce a historical and scholarly dimension into their interior, inviting the contemplation of the wonders of biodiversity.
