EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Bittern, 1863-79" takes us back in time to the late 19th century. Created by Raimundo Petraroja, a talented artist of that era, this colour lithograph showcases the beauty and intricacy of nature's creations. The image is part of the renowned private collection and was featured in "A Atlante zoologico popolare" a popular zoological atlas published between 1863 and 1879. The artwork depicts a Bittern, scientifically known as Botaurus stellaris, an elegant bird native to Europe and Asia. With its long neck gracefully extended and feathers meticulously detailed, the bittern stands out against a muted background. This illustration not only captures the physical characteristics of this magnificent creature but also reflects the artist's keen eye for detail. Petraroja's lithograph serves as both an artistic masterpiece and an educational tool for those interested in ornithology or natural history. Its inclusion in Giovanni Boschi's comprehensive work demonstrates its significance within scientific circles during that period. Preserved through time by ePurix Verlag Volker Christen, this print continues to inspire awe with its vibrant colors and lifelike representation. As we admire this remarkable piece today, we are reminded of our connection to nature and how art can beautifully convey its wonders across generations.
