This is a vintage lithograph depicting a native Australian mouse, likely a Dusky Hopping Mouse (Notomys fuscus). The mouse is the focal point, rendered in detailed shading to show its striped back and light-colored belly. It's positioned in a three-quarter view, showing its head, body, and long tail. The mouse is perched on a patch of dry grass and amongst rocks. In the background, there's a low hill or rise, suggesting a natural habitat. The sky is a pale blue, and the overall color palette is muted, typical of 19th-century natural history illustrations. The style is realistic, with attention to detail in the animal's fur and the texture of the vegetation. There is a small plant with a white flower in the background. The lithograph has a slightly aged appearance, with some discoloration and wear around the edges. At the bottom of the image, there is text in a delicate script, likely identifying the species and artist.
