The Comparative Osteology (1821-1838)
from Die vergleichende Osteologie [The Comparative Osteology]
collected by Christian Heinrich Pander & illustrated by Eduard d'Alton
Eduard d'Alton was a professor of art history at the Prussian Academy of Arts at the University of Bonn. Christian Heinrich Pander was a Baltic German biologist who lived in Latvia and was a member of the Saint Petersburg Academy of Sciences, where he was most well known for his groundbreaking studies of trilobites. Their collaboration resulted in Die vergleichende Osteologie [The Comparative Osteology], an extraordinary illustrated guide to animal bones.
The diverse range of animals includes everything from large fauna such as elephants, rhinos, and hippopotamuses, to more familiar creatures such as porcupines and red squirrels. The collection even includes a depiction of the extinct giant ground sloth.
