Hand-colored copperplate engraving from a drawing by George Edwards from Ebenezer Sibly's "Universal System of Natural History" 1794.
The prolific Sibly published his Universal System of Natural History in 1794~1796 in five volumes covering the three natural worlds of fauna, flora and geology. The series included illustrations of mythical beasts such as the sukotyro and the mermaid, and depicted sloths sitting on the ground (instead of hanging from trees) and a domesticated female orang utan wearing a bandana. The engravings were by J. Pass, J. Chapman and Barlow copied from original drawings by famous natural history artists George Edwards, Albertus Seba, Maria Sybilla Merian, and Johann Ihle.); © Florilegius

EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning hand-colored copperplate engraving captures the beauty and diversity of six different rodent species: the Egyptian jerboa, Syrian jerboa, dormouse, tamarisk rat, lineated mouse, and economic mouse. Each creature is meticulously detailed in this artwork from George Edwards' drawing featured in Ebenezer Sibly's "Universal System of Natural History" from 1794.
Ebenezer Sibly was a prolific naturalist who published his comprehensive work over five volumes during the late 18th century. His illustrations not only included common animals but also mythical beasts like the sukotyro and mermaid. The engravings were done by talented artists such as J. Pass, J. Chapman, and Barlow based on original drawings by renowned natural history illustrators like George Edwards.
In this particular print, we can admire the intricate patterns on each rodent's fur and their unique features that set them apart from one another. From the graceful leaps of the jerboas to the delicate paws of the dormouse, every detail is captured with precision and artistry.
This artwork serves as a reminder of the rich biodiversity found in nature and highlights the importance of preserving these creatures for future generations to appreciate and study. It is a true masterpiece that showcases both scientific accuracy and artistic skill in equal measure.
