The Alpine Ibex (Capra ibex) lives in rocky regions along the snowline above alpine forests of the European Alps. It is closely related to the Spanish Ibex (Capra pyrenaica) and the Middle Eastern Nubian Ibex (Capra ibex nubiana). Ibex are even-toed hoofed animals, also known as ‘cloven hoofed’.
Engraved by Gustav Ludwig Heinrich Mützel (1839 - 1893). A German artist, famous for his mammal and bird paintings, including the illustrations for the second edition of Alfred Edmund Brehm's ‘Thierleben’ and Richard Lydekker's ‘The Royal Natural History’.
This illustration is taken from ‘The Royal Natural History’ edited by Richard Lydekker and published by Frederick Warne & Co. London and New York, 1894.
The page size is 10 inch x 6 5/8 inch
The engraving is in very good condition. Reverse side is blank.
