Alfred Stevens Prints and Multiples
1823-1906
Alfred Émile Léopold Stevens (1823–1906) was a celebrated Belgian painter renowned for his depictions of elegant modern women, often inspired by 17th-century Dutch genre painting. Born in Brussels to a family immersed in the arts, he studied at the Académie Royale des Beaux-Arts and the École des Beaux-Arts in Paris. Stevens first gained recognition for his social realist works portraying the struggles of the poor but later found greater success with his detailed portrayals of fashionable Parisian life. His work earned him numerous accolades, including the Legion of Honor, and he became a key figure in the Parisian art scene, socializing with artists like Édouard Manet and Edgar Degas. Despite financial troubles later in life, Stevens continued to paint and teach, mentoring artists such as Sarah Bernhardt and William Merritt Chase. His later works included seascapes influenced by Impressionism, and he collaborated on the monumental "Panorama du Siècle." He received significant honors during his lifetime, including a major retrospective at the École des Beaux-Arts in 1900. Stevens passed away in Paris in 1906, leaving behind a legacy as one of the leading painters of his era.to

Mark Catesby's The Natural History of Carolina, Florida and the Bahama Islands is generally credited as the first published work to provide illustrations and descriptions of North American flora and fauna. From 1722-1726 Catesby, an English naturalist, ranged over South Carolina, Georgia and the Bahamas sketching and collecting specimens of native plants and animals.
Skunks are North and South American mammals in the family Mephitidae. While related to polecats and other members of the weasel family, skunks have as their closest Old World relatives the stink badgers. The animals are known for their ability to spray a liquid with a strong, unpleasant scent.
Biography:
Mark Catesby (24 March 1683 – 23 December 1749) was an English naturalist. Between 1729 and 1747 Catesby published his Natural History of Carolina, Florida and the Bahama Islands, the first published account of the flora and fauna of North America. It included 220 plates of birds, reptiles, amphibians, fish, insects, mammals and plants. Mark Catesby's The Natural History of Carolina, Florida and the Bahama Islands is generally credited as the first published work to provide illustrations and descriptions of North American flora and fauna. From 1722-1726 Catesby, an English naturalist, ranged over South Carolina, Georgia and the Bahamas sketching and collecting specimens of native plants and animals. Little is known of Catesby's early life. He was born in eastern England in 1683. Although Catesby does not appear to have attended university or studied for the Bar, he was sufficiently educated to write clear English and Latin. His interest in and knowledge of plants may have derived from his uncle, who maintained a botanical garden. Catesby also appears to have benefited from an acquaintance with John Ray, a leading English naturalist of the 17th century and the co-author of an early classic study of birds...
