7106 Hans Friedrich von Fleming (1679–1731) – Studies of Hunting and Wild Animals: Badger, Beaver, Otter, and Marten – Engraving (1719-1724)
An engraving on a single sheet, presenting four separate studies of animals arranged vertically. Each illustration is titled in old German script, identifying the animals as "Der Dachs." (The Badger), "Der Biber." (The Beaver), "Der Fisch Otter." (The Otter), and "Der Marder." (The Marten). The prints are rendered with detailed line work and shading, showing each animal in a naturalistic pose on a simple ground. This plate originates from a major early 18th-century treatise on hunting and serves as a historical record of animal species relevant to hunting and forestry of the period.
Hans Friedrich von Fleming was a German nobleman and courtier who served as a Master of the Royal Hunt in the court of Saxony. He is best known as the author of "Der Vollkommene Teutsche Jäger" (The Complete German Hunter), a comprehensive and influential work on hunting and forestry.
