This is a vintage illustration of a quoll, a carnivorous marsupial native to Australia. The quoll is depicted in a side view, showcasing its slender body, pointed snout, and long tail. Its fur is a mix of brown and gray, with a lighter underside. The animal is positioned on a patch of reddish-brown soil, surrounded by sparse vegetation, including grasses and small bushes. In the background, there are a few smaller quolls, seemingly peeking out from the vegetation. The illustration is detailed and appears to be a scientific or natural history artwork, likely from the 19th century. The style is realistic, with attention to the animal's anatomy and the texture of its fur and the surrounding environment. The artwork is labeled 'Peragalea Lagotis' at the bottom.
