Original Antique Print of a Dolphin species
Located in Langweer, NL
Original antique print titled 'Delphinus Edentulus'. Old print of a (toothless?) dolphin species. This print originates from 'Die Säugthiere in Abbildungen nach der Natur mit Beschreibungen (..)' by Johann Christian Daniel Schreber. Published circa 1780. Johann Christian Daniel von Schreber (17 January 1739 in Weißensee, Thuringia – 10 December 1810 in Erlangen), often styled J.C.D. von Schreber, was a German naturalist. In 1774, he began writing a multivolume set of books entitled Die Säugethiere in Abbildungen nach der Natur mit Beschreibungen, which focused on the mammals of the world. Many of the animals included were given a scientific name for the first time, following the binomial system of Carl Linnaeus.
