We are pleased to offer these original, recently hand colored engravings from George Louis Leclerc Buffon. A student of the Academy of Science, Buffon influenced the separation of science from theology, even before Darwin's theory of evolution. He suggested that man and ape may be connected through a scientific, common ancestry. In addition, Buffon challenged existing religious dogmas and acknowledged that new theories were needed, believing that the Earth was more than 6,000 years old. These beautiful illustrations present mammals in their natural, historical backgrounds.

The prints measure approximately 7 1/2 inches wide by 10 inches long and are fully hand colored by one of the few remaining professional colorists in England following descriptions & images of the species illustrated. Please review the photos carefully as they are very accurate. All our prints are antique prints guaranteed to be the stated age. These prints date from the mid to late 1700's and are guaranteed to be at least 200 years old. 

Please note the plate marks & ochre border of these prints may appear slightly distorted due to photographic effects. They are actually quite even & square in place.
