Johann Elias Ridinger, Foxes before the Earth

(Joh. El. Ridinger’s Hunting Album) II/13. – Comp. Thienemann 218. – From the “(Album of interesting Hunt and Group Pictures)” carried as 2nd part. – The whole rare set almost unknown to literature and comprising 80 sheets plus a recently discovered illustrated title of far larger image size (47.5 x 36 cm), though practically to be completed just peu à peu. In the picture effect corresponding to that of the aquatint technique not used by Ridinger anymore. – On strong wide-margined paper. – Three very small and tiny resp. tears in the wide white lower margin acid-freely repaired.

Compared with sheet 23 of the “View of the Wild Animals” the 5th full-grown fox looking from behind the trunk missing here. Also the tree decoration partly somewhat varied and shortened resp. – Without Brockes’s verses. – In regard of the certain changes and thus independant a

first-rate  addition  for  any  collection .

“ Yes please. I take that (further) copy.
I have now fetched the (last) parcel at the post office and I was very pleased. First of all: thank you for making so good parcel. I hate when I receive damaged copies because of bad envelopes. So once again: thank you very much for handling the items with such care! For me that is another word for seriousness and professionalism.
It was also a good copy and I liked it very much.
Please let me know if there is more items coming up ”
