This reproduction of a 19th-century scientific plate features two species of snakes: the variegated alecto and the crowned alecto. The engraving offers a complete view of the variegated alecto and a top view of the crowned alecto's head, accompanied by informative captions.
Issued from the encyclopedic work "Erpétologie générale ou Histoire naturelle complète des reptiles" by André-Marie-Constant Duméril (1834-1840), this scientific illustration belongs to the Conocerques family, sub-order of Proteroglyphs. It testifies to the meticulous care brought to documenting the various species of snakes.
This reproduction is particularly suited for enthusiasts of zoology, herpetology, and the history of science. It can serve as an educational decorative piece, recalling the richness of 19th-century naturalistic illustrations and the scientific study of reptiles.
