“Plate III” by Richard Lydekker features different species of wild sheep, goats, and similar horned animals. The detailed engravings of the heads of these animals, such as ibex and sheep, are accompanied by illustrations of their horns. Lydekker’s style reflects a deep appreciation for nature, combining realism with meticulous attention to anatomical detail. The piece was originally for “The Great and Small Game of India” in 1900 where Lydekker provided illustrations and descriptions of various animals. The book serves as both a guide and a showcase of his observations on Indian wildlife. His scientific approach blends with a keen artistic eye, aiming to capture the essence of these creatures.
