Text paper is Schiller. Paper for prints is Zerkall. Tip-ins. Bound in unbleached abaca handmade by Nicole Donnelly. Signed and numbered by the artist. Susan Viguers: "'The Opossum' is a specimen book in various ways. Most obviously, it is about a particular animal, the Virginia opossum. Conceived in the tradition of the type specimen book, it is a compendium of voices/observations about the opossum. The preface to the book consists of a statement by John D.

1825 1ed Wanderings South America Natural History Darwin & Wallace InspirationCharles Waterton (1781-1865) was a famous English naturalist, explorer, taxidermist, pioneering conservationist and overall polymath interested in anything and everything.
first visited British Guiana with his father in 1804. He subsequently returned on 4 occasions between 1812 and 1824, during which time he travelled extensively in the Guianas and across the northern part of South America. He was one of the first to observe the birds and animals of the tropics. He described his discoveries in this book 'Wanderings in South America,' which inspired Charles Darwin and Alfred Russel Wallace.
This 1825 first edition of Waterton's 'Wanderings' catered to the reading public's taste for adventures with its descriptions of a fight with a boa constrictor and the capture of crocodiles and his descriptive writing caused a stir in Victorian England with the publication of a drawing of a half man, half animal creature he was… Leer más
