"Lama" is a lithograph by firma Joseph Scholz, dating from 1829-1880, and currently housed in the Rijksmuseum. The print depicts a lama standing in profile, with a smaller lama in the foreground. The background features a mountain range and a cloudy sky, suggesting a mountainous landscape. The lithograph's realistic detail and depiction of a familiar animal make it a good example of 19th-century natural history illustration.
