Description
English: Wolf of Chazes, shot by M. François Antoine de Beauterne, displayed at the court of Louis XV.
Français : Représentation de la Bête du Gévaudan qui a fait tant de ravages dans ce pays et dans l'Auvergne, laquelle a été tuée le 20 septembre dernier par M. Antoine, chevalier de Saint Louis, seul porte-arquebuse de sa Majesté et présentée le 1er octobre au Roy et à la famille royale par M. Antoine de Beauterne fils. Pour que cet animal se conserve dans son naturel, on l'a disséqué, embaumé et attaché sur une planche tel qu'il est ici représenté. À Paris, chez Mondhare, rue Saint-Jacques. Gravure extraite du recueil factice de pièces relatives à la bête du Gévaudan, formé par Gervais-François Magné de Marolles.
