Dieren c. 1850 - 1860

"Dieren" (Animals) is a hand-colored lithograph created by the German artists Aleiter & Zeitinger around 1850-1860. The print features six different animal species, including a polar bear, a tiger, a leopard, a reindeer, a squirrel, and a monkey, all depicted in a natural setting. This type of artwork is typical of 19th-century European natural history illustration, highlighting the scientific observation and classification of animals. The detailed and accurate portrayal of each animal makes this print a valuable resource for understanding the natural world of that time.
