Description

The Horseshoe Javelin Bat has long been a subject of fascination, and this engraving from 1845 is a testament to that fascination. It provides a glimpse into the era when the study of bats and other animals was emerging as a serious scientific pursuit, and the illustration is both a scientific record and a work of art.

This beautifully preserved engraving captures the intricate details of a vampire bat, depicting its iconic fangs and wings in a remarkable level of detail. The engraving showcases the bat's unique anatomy, with its small, agile frame and its distinctive facial features. How stunning! Please note that this print is backed on an archival mat and ready to frame.
