"A tiger merges with the grass. Nature as camouflage."

About the artwork

Abbott Handerson Thayer (1849-1921) was an American painter and naturalist who developed the theory of animal camouflage. This painting of a tiger, created around 1900, directly illustrates his research: the animal blends into its environment, its stripes mimicking the shadows of tall grasses. Thayer published these discoveries in his treatise Concealing Coloration in the Animal Kingdom (1909), which influenced military camouflage strategies. A work that is both scientific and artistic.
