Original antique print of a porcupine (Das Canadische Stachelschwein) and other large rodents (Die goldschwänzige Stachelmaus, Die rothe Stachelratte).

Friedrich Johann Bertuch (1747-1822) was a German publisher and man of arts most famous for his 12-volume encyclopedia for children illustrated with 1,200 engraved plates on natural history, science, costume, mythology, etc., published from 1790-1830.
