Small print of a tortoise, based on a 1610 engraving by the Flemish naturalist Anselmus Boetius de Boodt. Dimensions: 21 X 14.8 cm. Frame not included. High-quality, thick 250gsm paper. Shipped well protected in a rigid package. This print depicts a tortoise, also known as "Testudo palustris, " captured in a meticulous and detailed style. The illustration highlights its robust shell and thick legs, while the text in Latin and Flemish accurately describes the animal. The tortoise is depicted in a natural posture, providing a clear view of its unique morphology while highlighting the subtle nuances of its appearance. This faithful reproduction, with its delicate shading and attention to anatomical details, evokes 17th-century art and the love of studying animal species.
