6499 Émile Baudement (1819–1886) – Montafon Cow (Vache de Montafonz) – Heliogravure Print (1861–62)

This rare heliogravure print, titled "VACIE DE MONTABONZ" and finished with engraving and lithography—a mixed technique—originates from Émile Baudement’s Les Races bovines au Concours universel agricole de Paris en 1856 : Études zootechniques, published in Paris in 1861–62. The illustration, designed by Théodore Rousseau and engraved by Johann Gottfried Weber, features a meticulously rendered Montafon cow standing in a pastoral landscape. This plate, numbered PL.XLVI, is part of a superb album renowned for its detailed studies of cattle breeds, based on photographs by Nadar jeune and interpreted by notable animal artists, contributing significantly to zootechnical documentation.

Théodore Rousseau (1812–1867) was a prominent French painter of the Barbizon School. Johann Gottfried Weber (1804–1880) was a German engraver known for his detailed work.
