EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases an exquisite engraving of a hedgehog, created by the English School in the 19th century. The artwork is part of a private collection and holds historical significance as it was originally featured in "The Natural History and Antiquities of Selborne" by Gilbert White, published in 1875. The intricate details captured in this engraving are truly remarkable. Every quill on the hedgehog's back is meticulously etched, giving the viewer a sense of its prickly nature. The artist's skillful use of shading brings depth to the image, making it come alive with texture and realism. As we admire this digitally cleaned image, we can't help but appreciate how art has always played a vital role in documenting our natural world. This particular illustration serves as both an educational tool and a work of art that captures the essence of this unique creature. Whether you're an animal lover or someone interested in history, this print offers a glimpse into the past while celebrating the beauty found within nature. It reminds us that even small creatures like hedgehogs have their place in our collective fascination with wildlife. Bridgeman Images has once again curated an exceptional piece from their Fine Art Finder collection, allowing us to bring home not just a beautiful artwork but also a piece of history that will spark conversations for years to come.
