Our final medieval leopard is from the Helmingham Herbal and Bestiary (dated around 1500). "Liberd" was another name for "leopard".

Under the gothic text of "Liberd", a sitting grey spotted leopard is shown. Its black spots are shown in triangular groups of three and it has long whiskers. It is very thin and sleek with a long neck and long thin tail. It is beautifully drawn. Image from Yale Center for British Art, Folio C 2014 4 (Helmingham Herbal and Bestiary), folio 19v.

Our third medieval leopard is a reminder that not all illustrators were equally skilled. This leopard is from the earliest known version (from c1287) of "Der Naturen Bloeme" by Jacob van Maerlent (c1235-after 1291).

On a very dark manuscript page, in a gilt frame, a very oddly shaped dark brown leopard with disc-like black spots is heading towards the left while looking at the reader. It has a flat round face (with crossed eyes) and a broad spindly beard and thin white teeth (with a lot of gaps) and pointed ears pointing sideways on either side of its head. Its tail (unspotted) appears to end in a double club. It is shown on green ground against a red background. It is very lean. Image from Lippische Landesbibliothek, Ms. 70 (Der Naturen Bloeme), folio 32r.

In medieval heraldry, a leopard may indicate that the first bearer of the arms was born as a result of adultery. This leopard is from an early 14thC manuscript of 'L'Acerba etas' by Cecco d'Ascoli (1257-1327).

A pale golden leopard covered with brown spots is lying on what is probably a bed of grass looking away from a stag running over grass on the right. The leopard is obviously male and its thin long tail is as spotted as the rest of its coat. An elaborate initial letter in red and blue is reaching up to rest between its tail and back legs. The stag has magnificent antlers and is also obviously male. Both animals are beautifully drawn. Image from Biblioteca Medicea Laurenziana, Plut.40.52 (L'Acerba etas), folio 50r.

We have reached the medieval leopard which was thought to be the result of an illicit matting between a pard and a lion. This lovely image is from Isabelle of France's Psalter (1303-1308).

Running towards the right, a fawn coloured leopard with darker brown arrow-shaped spots and a long unspotted curving tail. It has long dark claws on its paws and round ears with dark centres and white rims. Its snout is a little bit smudged and a large white fang is visible protruding from its mouth. Colours from the backing page (blue and green) are bleeding through and there appears to be a wet smudge around the tail. Image from Bayerische Staatsbibliothek, Cod.gall. 16 (Psalter of Isabelle of France), folio 30r.

Face to face with the master of camouflage. Emerging from the grass silently and confidently, with a hypnotic stare that says everything without a sound. Wild Africa in its purest form – raw, beautiful and full of tension.

Bonus Photo of the Day 8th November 2025.

G-BRNM, Chichester-Miles Leopard, on static display at Farnborough Air Show, 7th September 1996.
This was an attempt to create a market for a very light, 4 seat BizJet with very small, fuel-efficient engines.
It didn't go too well…
Or at all!

Head-on view of a small, twin engined, 4 seat BizJet, parked on black tarmac at an air show.
The plane is rather angular, with a pair of small jet engines attached to the sides of the rear fuselage.
The cockpit  has large windows, with a pair of pretty comfortable-looking seats visible through the front windows.
A man with a black cap and a woman with reddish brown hair are sitting at a collapsable table behind the plane.
People are walking past fencing in the distance, with large temporary buildings rising up the side of a hill in the distance.
