Alpine Ibex Illustration - Classic Engraving of Wild Mountain Goat #2233630 (License: Personal Use)

This black-and-white engraving depicts a mature male Alpine ibex (Capra ibex) in profile, standing alert on a steep, textured rock face. The artist uses cross-hatching to render fur texture, musculature, and the dramatic curvature of its ridged, backward-sweeping horns. The composition evokes naturalist field illustrations from the late 1800s, emphasizing anatomical accuracy and habitat context.
