About this work
A hand-colored lithographic plate shows a living monitor lizard with a forked tongue, banded brown and tan scales, and clawed feet resting on a weathered log. Below it, an articulated skeleton of the same reptile displays the skull, ribcage, limbs and long tail vertebrae. The plate is labeled Reptile du Désert and is attributed to Jean-Jacques Rifaud, dated 1830-1834.
