About the Item

This etching and engraving, titled "Gazel (Gazelle)," is a meticulous depiction of a gazelle standing gracefully. The artwork showcases the gazelle's slender body, delicate legs, and distinctive curved horns with fine detailing. The fur texture and gentle posture highlight the animal's elegance and grace. The background is minimal, ensuring the focus remains on the gazelle, emphasizing its natural beauty and serene presence. The print is a collaborative work by Jacques-Philippe Le Bas and Jean Eric Rehn, based on an original composition by Jean-Baptiste Oudry. The craftsmanship and attention to detail reflect the artistic skills and dedication of the artists involved. The print titled "Gazel (Gazelle)" was produced around 1740-1745. The artwork is part of a series titled "Recueil de divers animaux de chasse," and it showcases the detailed and graceful depiction of a gazelle. Gazelles primarily inhabit the open plains, grasslands, and savannas of Africa and Asia. They are well-adapted to dry, arid environments and are commonly found in countries such as Kenya, Tanzania, and Namibia in Africa. In Asia, they are found in parts of the Middle East and the Indian subcontinent. Gazelles prefer regions where they can graze on grasses and shrubs, often inhabiting areas with sparse vegetation where they can use their speed and agility to escape predators.
