Der Panther (Panther) - Hand-Colored Zoological Print, Circa 1840

About the Item

Title: Der Panther (Panther) - Hand-Colored Zoological Print, Circa 1840 Description: This exquisite hand-colored lithograph, titled "Der Panther" (The Panther), portrays the *Felis Pardus Lin.* with remarkable elegance and precision. Created around 1840, this print captures the panther in a dynamic pose, highlighting its sleek body, sharp gaze, and beautifully patterned coat. The naturalistic background, featuring lush vegetation and a tranquil setting, complements the panther’s grace and power, offering a stunning glimpse into its habitat. The accompanying German text provides intriguing details about the panther: "The panther is larger than the leopard, with a darker coat and distinct rosettes formed by irregular rings on its sides. Its fur is short, soft, and dense, with spots that are darker and more defined than those of the leopard. Panthers are found across Africa and parts of Asia, where they live in forests and savannahs. Known for their agility, strength, and sharp senses, they are skilled hunters but can also climb trees with ease. Their tail, which is nearly as long as their body, aids in maintaining balance during fast movements." The condition of this print is very good. The vibrant hand-coloring beautifully accentuates the panther’s golden-yellow coat and dark rosettes. The paper is of high quality, with minor foxing and slight edge wear typical of antique prints. The central image remains sharp and visually striking, a testament to the craftsmanship of this zoological artwork. This rare and meticulously preserved piece is a must-have for collectors of natural history art, wildlife enthusiasts, or anyone seeking a unique decorative piece. Its blend of artistic detail and scientific accuracy makes it a timeless treasure and a captivating addition to any collection or display.
