About the Item
Web-Footed Shrews, Rare Antique Mammal Print, Victorian Zoology 1894
This finely observed print depicts web-footed shrews navigating a watery landscape, highlighting their unique adaptations between land and water. The understated composition and careful detailing give the image a quiet, scholarly charm.
Smaller mammals such as shrews were essential to scientific zoological works yet are rarely encountered today, making this print particularly appealing to collectors seeking unusual subjects.
The print is sold unframed for maximum presentation flexibility.
Condition:
Very good condition. Soft toning consistent with age; minimal foxing.
Framing tips:
A slim walnut or light oak frame with a pale mat suits the delicate subject matter.
