Peruvian climbing salamander (Bolitoglossa peruviana)

This species is pedomorphic, only developing small stubs in place of toes. Also note the mustache-like cirri found on some males during the mating season.

’Le Déséspéré’ (The Desperate Man) by Gustav Courbet

Style- Romanticism

Genre- Self-Portrait

I gain strength from my knowledge that in any given circumstances most men are the same; it is only the circumstances that are so various. There are other men who want to paint as I do, and in front of our pages or easels, our experiences are common to each of us. There are many brotherhoods without name. And if I had to give a single piece of advice to a young painter, I would remind him of this. Then it would not seem to him so important or tragic or embittering that most of those who talk about art are entirely ignorant.
